About our coloured bath resurfacing in Porth Teigr
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cardiff. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Porth Teigr
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No need to remove anything
- Colour-matched on site
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Porth Teigr?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
Questions from Porth Teigr
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When we would advise against a repair

- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Landlords, agents and businesses in Porth Teigr
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Porth Teigr. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
