Our hiring checklist

Coloured bath resurfacing in Stony Houghton, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Stony Houghton

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Stony Houghton

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stony Houghton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Stony Houghton customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NG19 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair
