What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Non-slip bath coating in Llansantffraid, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Llansantffraid?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Llansantffraid

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Llansantffraid

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Powys.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
