Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 generally cheaper.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Crindau. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Crindau: your questions answered

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Crindau?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Crindau and the rest of Newport. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Common problems we fix in Crindau

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
