Repair or replace in Old Colwyn?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Old Colwyn. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Old Colwyn
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

- One picture of the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Old Colwyn, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Old Colwyn: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
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.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Conwy. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
