How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Repairing versus replacing in Low Newton-by-the-Sea

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Low Newton-by-the-Sea. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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