Coloured bath resurfacing in Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn, done in place

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Common problems we fix in Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

What affects the price in Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you work in Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 you book.
