Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Lower Sketty

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Lower Sketty

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Landlord and trade work in Lower Sketty

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Lower Sketty

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Lower Sketty?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Lower Sketty?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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.
