Questions from Barrmill

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do you cover the entire of North Ayrshire?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I book?

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Barrmill. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

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. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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.

When to call us in Barrmill

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair

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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Barrmill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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.
