The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

What affects the price in West Buckland

- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in West Buckland
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
