Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Newborough

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover Newborough?

We do. We send a technician to Newborough for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Can I fix it myself?

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, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Newborough?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Newborough

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Newborough. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures 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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Newborough

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
