How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Porthcawl
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Advice
When to call us in Porthcawl
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Porthcawl. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What else we do in Porthcawl
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
