Little Melton questions

Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you come to Little Melton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Melton and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Little Melton
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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 won’t last.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Little Melton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Little Melton
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
