The process

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
FAQs for Watch House Green
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Watch House Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why Watch House Green customers choose us
- A fixed quote before you book
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair
See our full price list and bath cost comparison.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
