Repairing versus replacing in Pilning

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Non-slip bath coating in Pilning, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Pilning and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Pilning

Common reasons people in Pilning contact us are:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Pilning

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Pilning

There is no charge for travel to Pilning. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Pilning

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
