What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Yarpole

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

Common problems we fix in Yarpole

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Yarpole clients choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before booking

Questions from Yarpole

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover Yarpole?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Yarpole and the rest of Herefordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Yarpole.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire suite

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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, normally ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
