Landlord and trade work in Newton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Non-slip bath coating in Newton without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Newton

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common problems we fix in Newton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Common reasons people in Newton contact us are:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

FAQs for Newton

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you come to Newton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Newton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
