Blythburgh: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Suffolk.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
