Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

Questions from Milton of Buchanan

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Milton of Buchanan. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most clients in Milton of Buchanan get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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