Coloured suite to white in Pilton, Devon
Coloured bath resurfacing in and around Pilton: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Pilton
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pilton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Pilton questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
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.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses
