Need coloured bath resurfacing in Goonhavern?

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Goonhavern. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Goonhavern, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Goonhavern, done in place

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. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlords, agents and businesses in Goonhavern

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should you replace it?

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. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Goonhavern

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One price list for the whole UK

Common questions in Goonhavern

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

We cover the whole UK, including Goonhavern and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 generally the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we are called out for in Goonhavern

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
