- The size and number of damaged areas

Questions from White Horse Common
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

We cover the whole UK, including White Horse Common and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
