Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Cradoc. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

About our non-slip bath coating in Cradoc

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to compare quotes

Questions from Cradoc

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, 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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Powys and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
