Coloured bath resurfacing for Ffos-y-ffîn homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Ffos-y-ffîn, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Ffos-y-ffîn

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Ffos-y-ffîn. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Common problems we fix in Ffos-y-ffîn

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

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

Before you book anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

FAQs for Ffos-y-ffîn

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Ffos-y-ffîn?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

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.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

For anyone letting property in or around Ffos-y-ffîn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
