Common questions in Manton
Are you accredited?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Across the UK, and that includes Manton. Prices don’t change with location.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Manton
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What affects the price in Manton
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlord and trade work in Manton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wiltshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Manton?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

- How to care for the finish

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

- 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)
