Coloured bath resurfacing in Caerhowel without replacing anything
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 a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.
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: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Caerhowel questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Caerhowel is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What affects the price in Caerhowel
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Caerhowel. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire suite

What we’re called out for in Caerhowel
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Customers usually contact us about:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
