Common questions in Ardlui
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Ardlui is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ardlui.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ardlui
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we cannot put right

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths

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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Common problems we fix in Ardlui
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- 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
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ardlui. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Repair or replace in Ardlui?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
