Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common questions in Middlebrook

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Do you cover Middlebrook?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Middlebrook and the rest of Bolton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Middlebrook?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Middlebrook is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t 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.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Middlebrook

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
