What affects the price in Chesterfield
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Non-slip bath coating in Chesterfield, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Chesterfield and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Other services in Chesterfield
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
Repairing versus replacing in Chesterfield
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Chesterfield

There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlord and trade work in Chesterfield
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Chesterfield, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
