Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Coloured bath resurfacing in West Hatch, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in West Hatch and across Somerset. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

West Hatch: your questions answered
Do you cover West Hatch?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Hatch and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in West Hatch
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repair or replace in West Hatch?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How much damage there is
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
