How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Emersons Green
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Emersons Green
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Emersons Green. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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.
Materials we repair

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Emersons Green: your questions answered
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
