Questions from Arnside

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Arnside?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Arnside

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Arnside, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arnside

Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
