FAQs for Halton
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you cover the whole of Wrexham?
The entire UK, including all of Wrexham. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Non-slip bath coating in Halton without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. 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.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 will say what we think.

Repair or replace in Halton?
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. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Halton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Halton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Halton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Halton?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
