Bathroom suite resurfacing

Lally

I know that a bath can be easily resurfaced, suppose the same goes for the sink and pedastil, but what about the actual toilet?

In our new home I chose a mint green bathroom suite, as did half the building! I love it, husband hates it and wants white. Since its only 5 years old and theres nothing faulty with it, I wondered if the whole thing could be made white?

Can this be done and does anybody know the rough cost?

Yes this can be done,price about £300

Thanks! Its pricy but still cheaper than buying a suite and getting it installed

Does the resurfacing last long? And would this price be for DIY or for a professional?

I paid about £200 for the bath alone :eek:

and...no.....I would never have it done again. It's not good.

Feels like you are bathing in sand paper at first, this is with all the rough bits and bobs here and there.
These do go after a few months of bathing and cleaning it, it polishes up like a normal bath.
But, if you knock it with anything, it chips very very easily. :doh:

If you have kids............DON'T DO IT !!
