Our work in Cargo
Cargo is about 3 miles north-west of Carlisle, in Cumbria. We agree a date that works for you, and you’ll know when to expect us, so you are not left waiting in all day. Cargo is one of 438 places in Cumbria we cover. Our nearest city page is Newcastle upon Tyne, about 54 miles away.
Here we cover the CA6 postcode area. From Applegarth, Eden Close and Edenside or a nearby road, we can come to you. Nearby, we also work in Etterby (2 miles south-east), Belah (2 miles south-east), Houghton (3 miles east), Tarraby (3 miles east) and Whiteclosegate (3 miles east). We also work in nearby towns such as Carlisle (3 miles south-east), Currock (4 miles south-east), Botcherby (4 miles south-east), Morton (3 miles south), Wigton (10 miles south-west) and Harraby (4 miles south-east).
Around Cargo
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Church of St Kentigern and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Carlisle station, roughly 3.3 miles south-east. Nearby you’ll also find The Lanes Shopping Centre (3 miles south-east) and A World In Miniature Museum (2.8 miles east). The countryside around Cargo includes Thurstonfield Lough.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Cargo
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Cargo: your questions answered
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Are there extra charges for Cargo?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Cargo, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Cargo?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Other services in Cargo
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- A fixed quote before you book
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Typically one visit, start to finish

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.
