Cwrt y Gollen: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cwrt y Gollen.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cwrt y Gollen without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Cwrt y Gollen and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
