- Resurfacing from £350

Coloured bath resurfacing in Parracombe without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Parracombe
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Parracombe. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Parracombe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How the visit works

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Questions from Parracombe
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Parracombe?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
