Our technicians come to Pickford for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pickford
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Pickford, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Pickford?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Pickford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Pickford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Questions from Pickford
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Pickford?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Pickford. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Common problems we fix in Pickford
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Further afield, we also cover the area around Allesley Castle (1.6 miles south-east) and Berkswell Village Museum (2.9 miles south-west).
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Pickford

What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
