Coloured bath resurfacing for Crosby Ravensworth homes

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Crosby Ravensworth

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Crosby Ravensworth and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Crosby Ravensworth questions

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?

We cover the entire UK, including Crosby Ravensworth and the rest of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you come to Crosby Ravensworth?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Crosby Ravensworth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

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.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What a repair cannot fix

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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Crosby Ravensworth

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins

When to call us in Crosby Ravensworth

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Crosby Ravensworth

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Crosby Ravensworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What affects the price in Crosby Ravensworth

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
