Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Foundry Town and across Rhondda Cynon Taff. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Foundry Town questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Foundry Town. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Foundry Town
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
