Coloured bath resurfacing in Trealaw, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Trealaw: your questions answered
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Trealaw?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do you come to Trealaw?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Trealaw and the rest of Rhondda Cynon Taff. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Are there extra charges for Trealaw?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When to call us in Trealaw
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Look out for these signs:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repair or replace in Trealaw?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Trealaw
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
When we’d advise against a repair
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 will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
