About our coloured bath resurfacing in Pen-y-cae
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Pen-y-cae
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you cover the whole of Conwy?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Pen-y-cae. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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.
