Coloured bath resurfacing in Llanishen without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Llanishen
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t 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
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who turns up on the day
- Aftercare advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Questions from Llanishen
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Llanishen?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Llanishen
If you manage property in Llanishen, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
