Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite 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. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Potten End: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What do you need from me?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Potten End

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

How many items we do on one visit
How many areas need work
The colour and finish to match
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

Your postcode, so we can check dates
What it’s made of, if you know
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Something in shot to show the size

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Potten End, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
