Coloured bath resurfacing in St Loye's, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in St Loye's and across Devon. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job without visiting.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t 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’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Other services in St Loye's
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common problems we fix in St Loye's
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to care for the finish
St Loye's: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
