The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Shelfanger without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Shelfanger: your questions answered
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Shelfanger?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP22 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, 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.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole suite
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Shelfanger and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Shelfanger
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- A fixed quote before you book
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 before you book.
