How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Most clients in Llanbadarn Fawr get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Llanbadarn Fawr clients choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

What we’re called out for in Llanbadarn Fawr

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
