Coloured bath resurfacing in Trenale without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
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.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

FAQs for Trenale
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you come to Trenale?
We do. We send a technician to Trenale for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
