Coloured bath resurfacing for Penmorfa homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Penmorfa without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Penmorfa questions

Do you cover the whole of Gwynedd?

The whole UK, including all of Gwynedd. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Are there extra charges for Penmorfa?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What affects the price in Penmorfa

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most clients in Penmorfa get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Penmorfa?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Penmorfa

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gwynedd and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Penmorfa clients choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
