Coloured bath resurfacing in Penparcau, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Penparcau

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What affects the price in Penparcau

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

If you’re in Penparcau and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Penparcau

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Penparcau use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

When to call us in Penparcau

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