About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ammanford
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Common questions in Ammanford
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Ammanford?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ammanford. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SA18 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
