How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Crossgates. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Landlord and trade work in Crossgates
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Crossgates
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Do you come to Crossgates?
We do. Technicians travel to Crossgates from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
