Common questions in Cummersdale

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cummersdale.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will I see the coating?

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

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Non-slip bath coating in Cummersdale without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Cummersdale and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Cummersdale

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What we are called out for in Cummersdale

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Cummersdale

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What affects the price in Cummersdale

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most customers in Cummersdale get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
