For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shanklin Village as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Shanklin Village
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole suite
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Shanklin Village?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repair or replace in Shanklin Village?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
