What affects the price in West Blatchington

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common problems we fix in West Blatchington

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Common reasons people in West Blatchington contact us include:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for West Blatchington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why West Blatchington customers choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
