Common questions in Alloway

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Alloway and the rest of South Ayrshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Alloway.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Alloway, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We leave the room as we found it

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alloway

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alloway as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
