How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in St Levan
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in St Levan and across Cornwall. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Levan
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for St Levan. The price reflects:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for St Levan. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

FAQs for St Levan
Do you work in St Levan?
We do. We send a technician to St Levan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
