FAQs for Thornsett
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thornsett as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Thornsett

People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
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. 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.
