Common questions in Castle Vale
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are there extra charges for Castle Vale?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Castle Vale, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Castle Vale
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Castle Vale. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Castle Vale, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Castle Vale?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Castle Vale
- A year’s guarantee on all work

- No extra charge for your area
