How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Trefechan
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Trefechan
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

When to call us in Trefechan
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Trefechan. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.

What else we do in Trefechan
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace in Trefechan?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour-matched on site
- Normally one visit, start to finish
