Coloured bath resurfacing for Trallwn homes

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Trallwn

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Questions from Trallwn

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Trallwn?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
