How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Banks as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common questions in Banks

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Do you cover the whole of Sefton?

The whole UK, including all of Sefton. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Banks?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your PR9 postcode.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour 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.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
