For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Non-slip bath coating in Mepal, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Mepal?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Choosing a repair company

Mepal: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Mepal included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you work in Mepal?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Mepal from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths
