Common questions in Stores Corner
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you cover Stores Corner?
We do. We send a technician to Stores Corner for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Repair or replace in Stores Corner?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stores Corner
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
