Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Harmer Hill as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
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 we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Harmer Hill
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 often lifts.
Honest limits
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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays

Common questions in Harmer Hill
Do you cover Harmer Hill?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Harmer Hill. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Harmer Hill included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
