Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. 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 care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix 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, typically ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for High Hauxley. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in High Hauxley

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover High Hauxley?

We do. Repair technicians travel to High Hauxley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, High Hauxley included. Travel is included in the price.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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.
