Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Non-slip bath coating in Kames, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Kames

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Kames

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Which areas do you work in?

All of East Ayrshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Kames, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Common problems we fix in Kames

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Kames

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
