DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Mackworth
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Mackworth. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Mackworth, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
