Landlord and trade work in Gallt-y-foel

Letting agents frequently 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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Gallt-y-foel, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Gallt-y-foel

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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
