About our coloured bath resurfacing in Balsall Common

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Balsall Common

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  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, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Balsall Common. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
