How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Lower Dimson
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Lower Dimson
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your PL18 postcode.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Lower Dimson get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
