Non-slip bath coating in Howdendyke, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Howdendyke?

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
