How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Great Barr
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair

- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
What we are called out for in Great Barr
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to look after the finish
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Barr
If you manage property in Great Barr, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Great Barr
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Great Barr.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
