Coloured bath resurfacing in Ysgubor Newydd, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Ysgubor Newydd. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Ysgubor Newydd

- Coloured basins

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What we’re called out for in Ysgubor Newydd
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
