Coloured bath resurfacing in Lower Birchwood without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Lower Birchwood
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Common reasons people in Lower Birchwood contact us include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Common questions in Lower Birchwood
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Are there extra charges for Lower Birchwood?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Repair or replace in Lower Birchwood?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
