Questions from Chyandour

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?

We cover the whole UK, including Chyandour and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Non-slip bath coating in Chyandour, 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 bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Chyandour

There’s no area surcharge for Chyandour. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common problems we fix in Chyandour

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Chyandour. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
