For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Lawrence use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to St Lawrence. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Questions from St Lawrence

Do I have to be there?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you come to St Lawrence?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to St Lawrence and the rest of Kent. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

When to call us in St Lawrence

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
