More services for East Hampnett
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
East Hampnett questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
How the visit works
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. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Hampnett use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
