- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Bassaleg, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- 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 will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites

FAQs for Bassaleg
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Bassaleg?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bassaleg, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
