Landlords, agents and businesses in Waun-Lwyd

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Waun-Lwyd, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Waun-Lwyd questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover Waun-Lwyd?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Waun-Lwyd from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Waun-Lwyd?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Waun-Lwyd. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

If you are in Waun-Lwyd and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 will say what we think.
