Coloured bath resurfacing near Ynyswen

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ynyswen

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Ynyswen: your questions answered

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you cover the whole of Rhondda Cynon Taff?

We cover the entire UK, including Ynyswen and the rest of Rhondda Cynon Taff. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are there extra charges for Ynyswen?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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, generally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Ynyswen

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Why Ynyswen customers choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ynyswen. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
