Common questions in Germiston
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of the Orkney Islands. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Germiston
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your KW16 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Germiston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
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 treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
