About our coloured bath resurfacing in Mortehoe
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Mortehoe
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Mortehoe
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Mortehoe. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we’re called out for in Mortehoe
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking

Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Mortehoe. Prices don’t change with location.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
