DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hirwaun
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hirwaun and across Rhondda Cynon Taff. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- 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
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
