Coloured bath resurfacing in Egloskerry without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. 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.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Egloskerry
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Egloskerry
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
