Coloured bath resurfacing in Pen-y-maes without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Pen-y-maes
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Pen-y-maes?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What else we do in Pen-y-maes
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we’re called out for in Pen-y-maes
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key 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 following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
For a price in Pen-y-maes, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
