Coloured bath resurfacing in St Buryan without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in St Buryan

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from St Buryan

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in St Buryan

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in St Buryan

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for St Buryan. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
