Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Trecastle

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Do you cover the entire of Powys?

All of Powys, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Trecastle

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Trecastle

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Trecastle. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trecastle

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What affects the price in Trecastle

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Trecastle. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Access to the area

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite

Most clients in Trecastle get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When to call us in Trecastle

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included
