Landlord and trade work in Burcott

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burcott as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Burcott, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Burcott as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Burcott

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

Burcott: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Repair or replace in Burcott?

Replacing a coloured suite involves 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Burcott. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
