How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Tresamble
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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)

Tresamble questions
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Tresamble?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Tresamble?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Tresamble. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Work done at your home or business

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any 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.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
