Choosing a repair company

Non-slip bath coating in Knox, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Knox as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What affects the price in Knox

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HG3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Knox questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How soon can you come?

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

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Are there extra charges for Knox?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
