Coloured bath resurfacing in Fox & Goose

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

We do not add 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole suite

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Fox & Goose without replacing anything

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we’re called out for in Fox & Goose

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fox & Goose as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins
