What affects the price in Thornhill
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Non-slip bath coating in Thornhill, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What else we do in Thornhill
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
For a price in Thornhill, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
