Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Morton-on-Swale. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Morton-on-Swale as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Morton-on-Swale
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
