Common questions in Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What information do you need?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen?

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairing versus replacing in Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
