Coloured bath resurfacing in Sheldwich, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.

What affects the price in Sheldwich
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Sheldwich. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair

- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
