Coloured bath resurfacing in Exmouth

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Exmouth

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Exmouth?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

  • No extra charge for your area

Honest limits

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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Exmouth

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

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