About our coloured bath resurfacing in Banwen
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Will there be a smell?

When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.
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.

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

What affects the price in Banwen
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
