Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Kingsand
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Kingsand
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Kingsand, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What else we do in Kingsand
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Kingsand
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Kingsand
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Kingsand?
We do. Technicians travel to Kingsand from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
We cover the entire UK, including Kingsand and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. 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.
