How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Carlidnack
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What else we do in Carlidnack
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Carlidnack: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work in Carlidnack?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Carlidnack. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Work done at your home or business
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
