Common questions in Chapels
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Chapels
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Usually one visit, start to finish

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire suite
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Chapels, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
