Landlord and trade work in Packwood Gullet
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Packwood Gullet?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for any of the following:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Advice
Repair or replace in Packwood Gullet?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
