Repair or replace: which is better?

Non-slip bath coating in Newington without replacing anything
It suits 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 bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Newington
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newington
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Newington questions

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.

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

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
