Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Walgrave 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. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Walgrave

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Do you work in Walgrave?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Walgrave from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Walgrave

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Walgrave

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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 quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Can I fix it myself?

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 generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
