Coloured bath resurfacing near Cyncoed

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cyncoed, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Cyncoed. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF23 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Cyncoed: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Cyncoed?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CF23 postcode.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Repair or replace in Cyncoed?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cyncoed

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
