Coloured bath resurfacing in Penmarth without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about 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 Cornwall. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Penmarth: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

What affects the price in Penmarth
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
