Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pelaw

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pelaw and across Newcastle upon Tyne. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Pelaw

For anyone letting property in or around Pelaw, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pelaw as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Most customers in Pelaw get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace in Pelaw?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are

Pelaw questions

Will there be a smell?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Are there extra charges for Pelaw?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

All of Newcastle upon Tyne, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we are called out for in Pelaw

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How to care for the finish
