How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Aber Valley
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Aber Valley as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most clients in Aber Valley get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before you book.

Common questions in Aber Valley
Do you cover Aber Valley?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Aber Valley and the rest of Caerphilly. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Aber Valley?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF83 postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not 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.
