Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Penhallick. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

If you’re in Penhallick and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

About our non-slip bath coating in Penhallick

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, across resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Penhallick

Do you work in Penhallick?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Penhallick for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How soon can you come?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

There’s 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

What we are called out for in Penhallick

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Penhallick as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Penhallick, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
