Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Marldon homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Marldon, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Marldon
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlord and trade work in Marldon
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Common questions in Marldon
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you cover the whole of Torbay?
All of Torbay, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Marldon
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TQ3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

- 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
