How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Old Heath, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Old Heath is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When to call us in Old Heath
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Look out for any of the following:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Old Heath customers choose us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour-matched on site
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
