Coloured bath resurfacing in Pool without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pool and across Cornwall. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Pool
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlord and trade work in Pool
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pool use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Pool questions
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Pool
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why Pool customers choose us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One visit for most repairs
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What affects the price in Pool
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Pool. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pool. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Pool get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Pool?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Common reasons people in Pool contact us are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Comparing quotes
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to look after the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
