About our coloured bath resurfacing in Caerau

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Caerau and across Bridgend. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Caerau: your questions answered

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you work in Caerau?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Caerau from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF34 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the whole UK

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
