Repairing versus replacing in Shawclough
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A fixed quote before you book
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Shawclough
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, 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 will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Shawclough

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Shawclough questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you come to Shawclough?
We do. We send a technician to Shawclough for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
