Common questions in Middle Herrington
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you come to Middle Herrington?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Middle Herrington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Middle Herrington
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Comparing quotes
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
