DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

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

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Flookburgh

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Customers generally contact us about:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Flookburgh: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.
