Landlord and trade work in Upware
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Upware
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Upware and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Upware?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
About our accreditations · Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.
