Coloured bath resurfacing in Shalden, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No extra charge for your area

Questions from Shalden
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you work in Shalden?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Shalden. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Shalden.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What affects the price in Shalden
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Shalden. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shalden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the entire suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
When to call us in Shalden
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
