Coloured bath resurfacing in Crewe Toll, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Crewe Toll. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EH4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in Crewe Toll
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Crewe Toll questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Crewe Toll. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover Crewe Toll?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Crewe Toll for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Landlord and trade work in Crewe Toll
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crewe Toll use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
