What else we do in Shepperdine
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.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

FAQs for Shepperdine
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shepperdine use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
