Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most customers in Chalfont St Giles get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Non-slip bath coating in Chalfont St Giles without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Chalfont St Giles, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Chalfont St Giles: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Are there extra charges for Chalfont St Giles?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the entire of Buckinghamshire?

The entire UK, including all of Buckinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, 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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Chalfont St Giles

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
