Repairing versus replacing in Thorney Hill
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Thorney Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Coloured bath resurfacing in Thorney Hill without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Thorney Hill
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Thorney Hill?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.
Thorney Hill questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Thorney Hill
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Thorney Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
