Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Penisa'r Waun

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Penisa'r Waun

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace in Penisa'r Waun?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Take a look at our full price list and bath cost comparison.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

When to call us in Penisa'r Waun

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Penisa'r Waun questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most clients in Penisa'r Waun get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
