Coloured bath resurfacing in Pensilva, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Pensilva and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pensilva
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Repair or replace in Pensilva?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Pensilva: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
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 there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Pensilva?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who turns up on the day
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Pensilva. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire suite
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
There’s 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
