Coloured bath resurfacing near Broughton

Coloured bath resurfacing in Broughton, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Broughton

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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, generally ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broughton

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured basins
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Broughton, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Broughton

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover the entire of the Vale of Glamorgan?

All of the Vale of Glamorgan, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What we are called out for in Broughton

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Look out for any of the following:

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