Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Strome Ferry use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Strome Ferry

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it 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 the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Strome Ferry

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Strome Ferry questions

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
