Openshaw: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Openshaw?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Openshaw
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your M18 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
