What affects the price in Merry Lees

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Merry Lees

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure

  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
