Crookgate Bank: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Crookgate Bank?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NE16 postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Are there extra charges for Crookgate Bank?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Crookgate Bank, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Crookgate Bank and across Gateshead. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. 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.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Crookgate Bank
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Crookgate Bank. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Repair or replace in Crookgate Bank?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Advice
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
