Book coloured bath resurfacing in Penyrheol

Repair or replace in Penyrheol?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Coloured bath resurfacing in Penyrheol without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

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 usually cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Penyrheol

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you work in Penyrheol?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Penyrheol and the rest of Caerphilly. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Penyrheol?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • 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

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Penyrheol

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

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
