Landlord and trade work in Herdings

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sheffield and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Non-slip bath coating in Herdings, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)

  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Questions from Herdings

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you work in Herdings?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Herdings from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We do not charge extra for travel to Herdings. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Herdings. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
