About our coloured bath resurfacing in Briery

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we cannot put right

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

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

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

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 with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Briery. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Briery clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
