  • 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.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Wheatpieces

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Wheatpieces

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Wheatpieces customers choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wheatpieces use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Common questions in Wheatpieces

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gloucestershire.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

When to call us in Wheatpieces

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Wheatpieces

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
