FAQs for Resolven
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you cover the whole of Neath Port Talbot?
All of Neath Port Talbot, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What affects the price in Resolven
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
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.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Resolven, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
