FAQs for Silver Street
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work in Silver Street?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Silver Street and the rest of Somerset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Silver Street?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Landlord and trade work in Silver Street
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
