How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Church Stretton
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Why repair rather than replace?

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
FAQs for Church Stretton
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Church Stretton and the rest of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are there extra charges for Church Stretton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
