What affects the price in Greystoke

Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Greystoke. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Greystoke. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Greystoke without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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, usually ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greystoke use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area
