Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to New Winton. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Coloured bath resurfacing in New Winton, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we’re called out for in New Winton

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work

FAQs for New Winton

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare 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, generally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EH33 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
