Coloured bath resurfacing in Paignton, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Paignton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Common questions in Paignton
