Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Constantine, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Rural addresses like Constantine just need a little planning. Let us know about access and where to park, and we’ll take care of the rest.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Constantine

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

Repair or replace in Constantine?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. In an older home in a village like Constantine, replacing a suite can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.

Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Constantine: your questions answered

Do you come out to small places like Constantine?

We do: small places like Constantine are covered as standard. Tell us if access is tricky.

My house in Constantine is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Normally, yes. Older coloured suites are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us photos and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Are there extra charges for Constantine?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Constantine

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

If you let a flat or house near Penryn station (about 4.5 miles north-east), we repair coloured suites between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

10 questions to ask before you book

Constantine: what to know about coloured bath resurfacing

If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church of St Constantine, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and coloured bath resurfacing gives it years more use.

Constantine is about 4 miles east of Helston, in Cornwall. We travel to homes and businesses in Constantine and the surrounding area, so there’s no workshop to go to. Constantine is one of 644 places in Cornwall we cover.

Visits for coloured bath resurfacing in TR11 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. Whether your suite is in a home on Comfort Wartha, Well Lane and Wheal Vyvyan or anywhere close by, we can come to you. We also travel to Ponjeravah (1 mile east), Port Navas (1 mile south-east), Helford Passage (2 miles south-east), Mawnan Smith (3 miles east) and Carlidnack (3 miles east). Larger places within reach include Truro (11 miles north-east), Falmouth (5 miles north-east), Camborne (8 miles north-west), Redruth (8 miles north), Helston (4 miles west) and Hayle (11 miles north-west).

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take 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. Somewhere as small as Constantine, access is generally the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the coloured bath resurfacing works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
