DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

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

About our non-slip bath coating in Godolphin Cross

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Godolphin Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Godolphin Cross

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Godolphin Cross

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work in Godolphin Cross?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Godolphin Cross from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Repairing versus replacing in Godolphin Cross

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
