Box's Shop questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Box's Shop
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
