Coloured bath resurfacing for Charlesville homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Charlesville, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Torfaen. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charlesville

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charlesville as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When to call us in Charlesville

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Charlesville

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work in Charlesville?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Charlesville for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What areas do you cover?

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

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare 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.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

What affects the price in Charlesville

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Charlesville. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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