Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Lydham
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Lydham
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Lydham.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
What affects the price in Lydham
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lydham
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Lydham
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Lydham

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
