Coloured bath resurfacing in Shepherd's Port

Coloured bath resurfacing in Shepherd's Port 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. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can usually put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole suite

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Shepherd's Port

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Shepherd's Port.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
