What affects the price in Little Tew

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Little Tew get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Little Tew

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Little Tew questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Tew

For anyone letting property in or around Little Tew, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Little Tew

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes 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. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
