How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Cranhill
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Cranhill questions
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairing versus replacing in Cranhill
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the whole UK

Common problems we fix in Cranhill
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- 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
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
