How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Shute
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Our work in Shute

All of EX13 is within our area. If you’re just outside Shute, we cover Kilmington (1 mile north-east), Whitford (1 mile south-east), Maidenhayne (2 miles south-east), Kingsdon (2 miles south) and Musbury (2 miles south-east).

Local landmarks in Shute
Around Shute, we work in homes near Church of St Michael and Shute Community Primary School and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Axminster station, about 2.4 miles east of the centre. A little further out are Axminster Hospital (2.9 miles east) and Colcombe Castle (1.6 miles south).
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key 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 day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shute. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One price list for the entire UK
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We leave the room as we found it

What we are called out for in Shute
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

What else we do in Shute
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Shute. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Shute, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
