DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

About our non-slip bath coating in Brickhouses

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Wet room floors (ask us)

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths

Brickhouses: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Brickhouses

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Brickhouses, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Related advice

Repairing versus replacing in Brickhouses

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a 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. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

What we’re called out for in Brickhouses

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
