Common questions in Preston St Mary
Which areas do you work in?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Preston St Mary
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colour-matched on site
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What affects the price in Preston St Mary
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Preston St Mary, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
