About our coloured bath resurfacing in Pelham
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Pelham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Common questions in Pelham
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you cover the whole of Birmingham?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire suite
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Pelham, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
