Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Great Lea Common
For anyone letting property in or around Great Lea Common, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Great Lea Common
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Great Lea Common. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
