Landlords, agents and businesses in East Bridgford

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Repairing versus replacing in East Bridgford

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Questions from East Bridgford

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including East Bridgford and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key 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, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in East Bridgford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
