FAQs for Scawsby
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Non-slip bath coating in Scawsby without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common problems we fix in Scawsby
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Scawsby
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
