Coloured bath resurfacing in Shippon, done in place
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Shippon and across Oxfordshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What else we do in Shippon
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- 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
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Shippon
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Shippon. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shippon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
