How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Abercarn
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abercarn
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abercarn as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Abercarn, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Abercarn?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
