Choosing a repair company

About our non-slip bath coating in Cottam

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Cottam

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cottam. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Cottam questions

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
