Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Keyham
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Keyham
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Questions from Keyham
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Keyham is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Fixed prices from your pictures

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Keyham
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
