How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Pen-y-dre
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Pen-y-dre: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Pen-y-dre?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pen-y-dre
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pen-y-dre use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we’re called out for in Pen-y-dre
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Common reasons people in Pen-y-dre contact us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
- What prep work is covered
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?

- One visit for most repairs
- Colour-matched on site
