Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Ruardean Woodside questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Ruardean Woodside?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Ruardean Woodside is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When to call us in Ruardean Woodside
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Common reasons people in Ruardean Woodside contact us are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not 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 booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to care for the finish
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
