For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole suite
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BA11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Little Keyford
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are there extra charges for Little Keyford?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different 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.
