Birmingham questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What guarantee do I get?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
When can I use it again after the repair?
Usually the same day or the next, depending on the job. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can landlords and businesses in Birmingham book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for landlords, agents, builders, hotels and homeowners.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Birmingham
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)

Repairing versus replacing in Birmingham
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
When to call us in Birmingham
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
