Choosing a repair company

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Tanerdy

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Tanerdy

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Questions from Tanerdy

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do you cover Tanerdy?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Tanerdy for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
