Landlords, agents and businesses in Appledore Heath

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Appledore Heath, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Appledore Heath without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Appledore Heath

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Appledore Heath and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What we are called out for in Appledore Heath

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace in Appledore Heath?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
