Coloured bath resurfacing in Crooklands, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Crooklands
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
