There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Trelew without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Trelew

What affects the price in Trelew
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Trelew. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Trelew: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
