DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 affects the price in Candlesby

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Candlesby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
