Lathones: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Non-slip bath coating in Lathones, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, across enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Lathones
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace in Lathones?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
