Coloured bath resurfacing for Cefncaeau homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cefncaeau without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cefncaeau as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

FAQs for Cefncaeau

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

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 it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Cefncaeau?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cefncaeau. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
