DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Child's Ercall without replacing anything
A full suite is generally 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 a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Child's Ercall and across Shropshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Child's Ercall and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

- Faded or patchy colour

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit

- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
