Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
  • Items cracked right through
  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Lamport. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lamport

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
