Landlord and trade work in Croft

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Croft

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. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Warrington. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Croft

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)

Common questions in Croft

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How do I clean it?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
