FAQs for Overstone
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Overstone?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Overstone, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Overstone. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not 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 photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Overstone and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
