How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Crosby
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Crosby
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Why repair rather than replace?

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Crosby. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
