Repair or replace: which is better?

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit.

West Darlochan: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you work in West Darlochan?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Darlochan and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in West Darlochan get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit 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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
