DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

Repair or replace in Burraton?

Instead, you could go for 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 depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 work on in Burraton

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
