Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Redbridge, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Redbridge

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

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

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

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Redbridge: your questions answered

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Redbridge and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Redbridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
