What we’re called out for in Osbaldeston Green

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Osbaldeston Green

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. 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. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Osbaldeston Green

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
