Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

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.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Clifton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re 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 with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Repair or replace in Clifton?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Clifton clients choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Clifton

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Clifton

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What areas do you cover?

All of Leeds, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
