Coloured bath resurfacing in Tairgwaith

Coloured bath resurfacing in Tairgwaith, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tairgwaith. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Tairgwaith questions

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you come to Tairgwaith?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Tairgwaith and the rest of Carmarthenshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Tairgwaith

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole suite

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
