Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
About our non-slip bath coating in Fivelanes
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Repairing versus replacing in Fivelanes
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 treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays

- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Fivelanes, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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.
Common questions in Fivelanes
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are there extra charges for Fivelanes?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
