DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

If you are in Waltham and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Waltham, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

FAQs for Waltham

Is it messy?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Waltham

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
