What affects the price in Poulton

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Non-slip bath coating in Poulton, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Poulton

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Poulton and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Will I see the coating?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Poulton?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are

Landlords, agents and businesses in Poulton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Poulton

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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

We price from photos 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 will get a fixed figure back.
