Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Canley

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Canley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Canley and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Canley questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Canley and the rest of Coventry. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, 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 so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

Most clients in Canley get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
