Coloured bath resurfacing in Linstead Parva, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Linstead Parva

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you work in Linstead Parva?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Linstead Parva and the rest of Suffolk. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
