Coloured bath resurfacing in Ellesmere, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We’re frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Ellesmere and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Ellesmere
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Ellesmere, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ellesmere?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for these signs:
- 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
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ellesmere use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Ellesmere, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key 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 following day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
