Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
