Local coloured bath resurfacing for Pen-y-lan: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Pen-y-lan
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Pen-y-lan
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Pen-y-lan: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Why repair rather than replace?
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. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match
