FAQs for Dandy Corner
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Dandy Corner. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Dandy Corner?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
