Coloured bath resurfacing in Gravelly Hill

Coloured bath resurfacing in Gravelly Hill without replacing anything

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Birmingham. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Gravelly Hill questions

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Gravelly Hill included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you come to Gravelly Hill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Gravelly Hill. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Gravelly Hill

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Gravelly Hill?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
