Coloured bath resurfacing near Bridgend

Coloured bath resurfacing in Bridgend without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Common questions in Bridgend

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you come to Bridgend?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bridgend. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH49 postcode.

What affects the price in Bridgend

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace in Bridgend?
