What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Dunston questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Dunston. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunston

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
