Coloured bath resurfacing in Coswinsawsin without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Coswinsawsin and across Cornwall. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Coswinsawsin?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Coswinsawsin, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Coswinsawsin: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

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.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TR14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
