Coloured bath resurfacing in St Ive without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in St Ive
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide, so St Ive is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in St Ive
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone

- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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 next day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in St Ive
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why St Ive customers choose us
- Everything repaired in place
- We leave the room as we found it
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Ive use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
