Questions from Shibden Dale

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no area surcharge for Shibden Dale. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Shibden Dale

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
