Questions from Bardsley

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work in Bardsley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Bardsley. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the entire of Oldham?

The whole UK, including all of Oldham. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Bardsley.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Bardsley

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Bardsley, and we will reply with a fixed price.

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
