Coloured suite to white in Hales, Shropshire
We travel to Hales for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hales, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Hales. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hales. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Hales questions
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why Hales customers choose us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colour-matched on site
- One-year guarantee on every repair

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
