Coloured bath resurfacing in Llandaff

Coloured bath resurfacing in Llandaff, done in place

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Llandaff. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Llandaff, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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 day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book

Llandaff questions

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
