Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Goodleigh
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Goodleigh questions
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Goodleigh
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins

What we are called out for in Goodleigh
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Goodleigh
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goodleigh as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Goodleigh. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Goodleigh
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Goodleigh. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is

- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
