DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, 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.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Rumburgh. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rumburgh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Rumburgh: your questions answered
Do you cover Rumburgh?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Rumburgh from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rumburgh as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Rumburgh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
