Coloured bath resurfacing in Hellesveor, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.
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.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Hellesveor
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TR26 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Hellesveor: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR26 postcode.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Repairing versus replacing in Hellesveor
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
