Common questions in Whitemans Green

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

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

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Whitemans Green

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common problems we fix in Whitemans Green

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Whitemans Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Items cracked right through
