Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Painter's Forstal: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What areas do you cover?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are there extra charges for Painter's Forstal?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Painter's Forstal
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 work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Honest limits
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)

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire suite
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
