Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Penyrheol, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Penyrheol. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire suite
- What it’s made of, if you know

When to call us in Penyrheol
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
