How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your E3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Fish Island

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Fish Island. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays

FAQs for Fish Island

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Greater London. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fish Island

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
