How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Crawley

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Crawley

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crawley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Crawley

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Crawley?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do you come to Crawley?

We do. Technicians travel to Crawley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What affects the price in Crawley

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Crawley. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
