Knettishall questions

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What about the toilet?

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

Are there extra charges for Knettishall?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Knettishall

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Knettishall

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Knettishall

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
