Coloured bath resurfacing for Cragbank homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cragbank without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cragbank as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LA5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Cragbank

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Cragbank. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • One price list for the entire UK
