Coloured bath resurfacing for Cwm-ffrwd-oer homes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Cwm-ffrwd-oer: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you come to Cwm-ffrwd-oer?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cwm-ffrwd-oer. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
