Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Pentrebach
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
What affects the price in Pentrebach
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
For a price in Pentrebach, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Pentrebach
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Pentrebach
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Pentrebach?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
