What we are called out for in Church Houses

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Church Houses, done in place

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Church Houses and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Church Houses, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Church Houses

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Church Houses included. Travel is included in the price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Church Houses. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Church Houses, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
