Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Low Row use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

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

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Low Row

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Low Row?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work in Low Row?

We do. We send a technician to Low Row for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What affects the price in Low Row

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole suite

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CA8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
