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

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice

  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Friog

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Friog. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace in Friog?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our full price list and bath cost comparison.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Friog, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gwynedd and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents often 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.

Friog questions

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you come to Friog?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Friog and the rest of Gwynedd. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there any odour?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
