Common questions in Capel Llanilltern
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Capel Llanilltern.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Why repair rather than replace?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Capel Llanilltern.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Capel Llanilltern. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
