What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Oakbank?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your PH1 postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Oakbank. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Oakbank?
