Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it

- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Mawnan Smith
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

When to call us in Mawnan Smith
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Mawnan Smith. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TR11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
