FAQs for Shortheath
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Shortheath. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I book?

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.

- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Shortheath?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Shortheath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Shortheath, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
