What affects the price in Sandfields

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

About our non-slip bath coating in Sandfields

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not the answer

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

If you manage property in Sandfields, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One price list for the entire UK

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
