FAQs for Lower End
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Milton Keynes.
Is a repair better than a new one?
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 have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are there extra charges for Lower End?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your MK17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower End. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Lower End
