What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most customers in Llansteffan get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common questions in Llansteffan

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover Llansteffan?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Llansteffan from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Common problems we fix in Llansteffan

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Llansteffan. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llansteffan

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  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 next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
