Coloured bath resurfacing in Shipley without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Shipley, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
FAQs for Shipley
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?
Across the UK, so Shipley is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Shipley.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. 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 doing several items at once reduces it.
