About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cradoc
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. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cradoc. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
For anyone letting property in or around Cradoc, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common questions in Cradoc
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Cradoc?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LD3 postcode.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Cradoc is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
