Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently 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, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Common questions in Brierley
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Brierley and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Brierley
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A suite that does not 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 your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How long it needs to cure
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
