Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in the Isles of Scilly

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

What it costs in the Isles of Scilly

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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)

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Common reasons people in the Isles of Scilly contact us include:

  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Landlord and trade work in the Isles of Scilly

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in the Isles of Scilly use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Repairing versus replacing

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage

Common questions in the Isles of Scilly

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
