Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Pennycross
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pennycross and across Plymouth. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Pennycross questions
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you work in Pennycross?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pennycross and the rest of Plymouth. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Pennycross
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Pennycross
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Pennycross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Pennycross?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
