When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Tal-y-cafn

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Tal-y-cafn

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Do you cover Tal-y-cafn?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Tal-y-cafn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Do you cover the entire of Conwy?

All of Conwy, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Repairing versus replacing in Tal-y-cafn

Replacing a coloured suite means 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs

See our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tal-y-cafn

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Tal-y-cafn

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Tal-y-cafn. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Tal-y-cafn get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
