How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Crymlyn Burrows
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
We price from pictures 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 will come back with a fixed figure.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Crymlyn Burrows
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How to look after the finish
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Crymlyn Burrows
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you work in Crymlyn Burrows?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Crymlyn Burrows and the rest of Swansea. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Honest limits
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.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
