FAQs for Elton

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Non-slip bath coating in Elton without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Elton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we are called out for in Elton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Elton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

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

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.

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Elton

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
