Whiterow: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are there extra charges for Whiterow?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the whole of Highland?
Everywhere in the UK, Whiterow included. Travel is included in the price.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Whiterow
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
When we would advise against a repair
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.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
What else we do in Whiterow
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One price list for the entire UK
- Most jobs done in one visit
See our full price list.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Covering Whiterow
Whiterow is about 19 miles south-east of Thurso, in Highland. Wherever you are in the KW1 postcode area, a technician comes to you. Whiterow is one of 253 places in Highland where we work.
All of KW1 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. Nearby, we also work in Wick (1 mile north), Haster (3 miles north-west), Staxigoe (3 miles north-east), Thrumster (3 miles south-west) and Ackergillshore (3 miles north). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so call us to arrange it.
Landmarks near Whiterow
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Wick High School, Pulteneytown Parish Church and Bignold Park, among other places. For rail, the closest station is Wick station, about 1.2 miles north. A little further out are Wick Heritage Museum (1.2 miles north) and Castle of Old Wick (0.6 miles east). Not far away are Loch Hempriggs.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Common problems we fix in Whiterow
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but 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:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
