Repairing versus replacing in Swarcliffe
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

Common questions in Swarcliffe
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are there extra charges for Swarcliffe?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Swarcliffe. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
If you are in Swarcliffe and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
