What affects the price in North Pickenham

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in North Pickenham?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

Common questions in North Pickenham

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in North Pickenham

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Pickenham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
