DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Non-slip bath coating in Plumley, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How we price non-slip bath coating

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Plumley questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover Plumley?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
