Coloured bath resurfacing near Cribyn

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Cribyn

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

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

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Cribyn

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Cribyn?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SA48 postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you work in Cribyn?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cribyn and the rest of Ceredigion. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Landlord and trade work in Cribyn

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Cribyn

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Cribyn. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
