Coloured bath resurfacing in Yr Olchfa without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Yr Olchfa as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Yr Olchfa
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SA2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Questions from Yr Olchfa
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Yr Olchfa. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Common problems we fix in Yr Olchfa
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who turns up on the day
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
