Coloured bath resurfacing in Porthilly, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Porthilly
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Porthilly?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Are there extra charges for Porthilly?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
What affects the price in Porthilly
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire suite
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Most clients in Porthilly get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Porthilly
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Porthilly use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Porthilly, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Common problems we fix in Porthilly
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
