Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Thorncross
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Thorncross from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Thorncross
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Thorncross is about 6 miles south-west of Newport, in Isle of Wight. Our work suits any type of property, old or new, large or small, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. Thorncross is one of 125 towns and villages in Isle of Wight we cover.
We cover every part of the PO30 postcode area. Close by, we cover Brighstone (1 mile north-west), Moortown (1 mile north-west), Shorwell (1 mile north-east), Little Atherfield (2 miles south-east) and Atherfield Green (2 miles south-east).

What’s near Thorncross
We visit homes around The Countryman pub, St. Mary's Church and Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School and the streets around them. A little further out are Whitecroft Hospital (4.4 miles north-east) and The Dinosaur Farm Museum (0.5 miles south-east). For a walk, there is Brighstone Down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Thorncross
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thorncross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Thorncross
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
