Landlords, agents and businesses in Wantage
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Wantage
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Wantage
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Questions from Wantage
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What else we do in Wantage
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire suite
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
