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. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Stockwood clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Stockwood

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Stockwood?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stockwood

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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