Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hudswell use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Hudswell

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Hudswell

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

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, 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 you book.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

There may be a mild smell during the work.
