FAQs for Shotgate

When can you do it?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Shotgate and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover Shotgate?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Shotgate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Shotgate

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. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can usually put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shotgate

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shotgate as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no charge for travel to Shotgate. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you are in Shotgate and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we’re called out for in Shotgate

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our full price list.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Shotgate

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

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
