Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Landlord and trade work in Calow
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Calow as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Calow
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
