- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Non-slip bath coating in Swaythling without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Swaythling as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Swaythling. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Swaythling
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swaythling use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Everything repaired in place
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
