  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Repairing versus replacing in Ramridge End

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Ramridge End. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Ramridge End, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Questions from Ramridge End

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Are there extra charges for Ramridge End?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you come to Ramridge End?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ramridge End and the rest of Luton. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the whole of Luton?

The whole UK, including all of Luton. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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, typically until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
