Coloured suite to white in Pen-yr-heol, Swansea
Our repair technicians come to Pen-yr-heol for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Pen-yr-heol
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Pen-yr-heol, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Pen-yr-heol: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Pen-yr-heol?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What affects the price in Pen-yr-heol
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire suite
- Any details about the material
If you are in Pen-yr-heol and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairing versus replacing in Pen-yr-heol
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
