FAQs for Roundshaw

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you cover the whole of Greater London?

All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Roundshaw?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Roundshaw.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 generally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Roundshaw?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SM6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Roundshaw

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Roundshaw?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
