Michaelston-le-Pit and Leckwith questions

Do you come to Michaelston-le-Pit and Leckwith?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Michaelston-le-Pit and Leckwith from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Repair or replace: which is better?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Michaelston-le-Pit and Leckwith.

  • Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Michaelston-le-Pit and Leckwith. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
