What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire suite
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Landlord and trade work in Cyfarthfa
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Cyfarthfa questions
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Merthyr Tydfil.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
