Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Common questions in Portnahaven
Are there extra charges for Portnahaven?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
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.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
What affects the price in Portnahaven
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Landlord and trade work in Portnahaven
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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.
Common problems we fix in Portnahaven
