Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Shackerstone?

Common reasons people in Shackerstone contact us include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
Coloured bath resurfacing in Shackerstone, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Repair or replace in Shackerstone?
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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Shackerstone
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
