DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Gawsworth

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cheshire East and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Gawsworth questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Gawsworth?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SK11 postcode.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. 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 look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
