For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
About our non-slip bath coating in Knolton
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Knolton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Knolton
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is my repair covered?

Are there extra charges for Knolton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Repair or replace in Knolton?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Knolton
We charge the same across the UK, including Knolton. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Knolton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
