Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Same prices wherever you are
- Typically one visit, start to finish

FAQs for Leamside
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you cover Leamside?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Leamside from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Leamside. The price depends on:
