Coloured bath resurfacing in Shutta without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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 pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Shutta get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Other services in Shutta
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shutta. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Landlord and trade work in Shutta
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Shutta, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
