DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Twelvewoods, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
