Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Thundersley
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Thundersley. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Thundersley. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thundersley
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thundersley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
