Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Barne Barton
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
In a smaller place like Barne Barton, homes are frequently houses and bungalows rather than flats. Coloured bath resurfacing keeps a sound bath in use without a refit.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Barne Barton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Barne Barton questions
My house in Barne Barton is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Generally, yes. Older coloured suites are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
I let a flat near St Budeaux Ferry Road station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is normally quicker than replacing.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Plymouth?
The whole UK, including all of Plymouth. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Barne Barton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Why repair rather than replace?

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on. Visits around Barne Barton are normally simple: we park, protect the room and get started, after agreeing the plan with you.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
