Coloured bath resurfacing near Tredegar

Coloured bath resurfacing in Tredegar, done in place

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.

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

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Common problems we fix in Tredegar

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tredegar as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Tredegar

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Blaenau Gwent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What affects the price in Tredegar

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Tredegar. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Tredegar get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tredegar. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
