About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ernesettle
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

When to call us in Ernesettle
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Ernesettle. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ernesettle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ernesettle, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Ernesettle
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you cover the whole of Plymouth?
We cover the whole UK, including Ernesettle and the rest of Plymouth. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Are there extra charges for Ernesettle?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
