DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Marley Hill
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marley Hill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Marley Hill questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
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 pictures and you will get one combined price.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Common problems we fix in Marley Hill
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things customers generally mention when they call include:
- 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
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally 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.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
