Coloured bath resurfacing for Camborne homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Camborne, done in place

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Camborne

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Camborne

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Camborne?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured basins

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
