Choosing a repair company

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cronton, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Halton. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Cronton. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Cronton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairing versus replacing in Cronton

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common questions in Cronton

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do you cover Cronton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Cronton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.
