What affects the price in Shipmeadow
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in Shipmeadow and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Shipmeadow
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
