Questions from Ightfield
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ightfield
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When to call us in Ightfield
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long it needs to cure
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Ightfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
