For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Broomhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Broomhill?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
