Coloured bath resurfacing in Trefor

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Trefor

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Trefor: your questions answered

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Trefor is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Trefor

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare 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, normally ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
