Coloured bath resurfacing in Trelowth without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Trelowth and across Cornwall. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Trelowth
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Trelowth
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to look after the finish
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Trelowth
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Trelowth and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry

You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

- Colour mixed on the day to match
