When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Castletown

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

Common problems we fix in Castletown

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for these signs:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Castletown

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What affects the price in Castletown

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common questions in Castletown

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you come to Castletown?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Castletown. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Castletown customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
