Landlord and trade work in Praa Sands
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Praa Sands, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Praa Sands, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we can’t put right
We will 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Praa Sands
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Praa Sands?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Praa Sands from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Praa Sands. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colour-matched on site
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Praa Sands. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
