Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
About our non-slip bath coating in Garnsgate
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Garnsgate
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Questions from Garnsgate
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Garnsgate?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Lincolnshire.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When to call us in Garnsgate
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
