What affects the price in Stanford in the Vale
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Stanford in the Vale, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Stanford in the Vale
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Stanford in the Vale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
