Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Brithdir

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Brithdir

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Brithdir questions

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Brithdir included. There is no extra charge for travel.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brithdir

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Powys and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price
