Coloured bath resurfacing in Llwyn-y-brain

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Llwyn-y-brain, done in place

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Llwyn-y-brain and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Llwyn-y-brain

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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 will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Llwyn-y-brain

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you cover the entire of Carmarthenshire?

All of Carmarthenshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Are there extra charges for Llwyn-y-brain?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What we are called out for in Llwyn-y-brain

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llwyn-y-brain

For anyone letting property in or around Llwyn-y-brain, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
