DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Takeley Street, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Takeley Street: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover Takeley Street?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Takeley Street for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Takeley Street use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Takeley Street
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CM22 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Fixed prices from your pictures

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
