Coloured bath resurfacing in Meaver, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Meaver
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Meaver use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Meaver
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
The whole UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
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.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Repairing versus replacing in Meaver
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Meaver. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Meaver. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
