Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Spexhall

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Landlord and trade work in Spexhall

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Common questions in Spexhall

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Are there extra charges for Spexhall?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will it make a mess?

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

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Spexhall?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
