What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

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

About our non-slip bath coating in Ashfield

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ashfield as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Ashfield

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Ashfield. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repairing versus replacing in Ashfield

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place

See our prices page.

Common problems we fix in Ashfield

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Ashfield

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
