Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Highclere, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

FAQs for Highclere

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Berkshire.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Highclere

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Highclere

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
