Questions from Whiteway
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Whiteway. Prices do not change with location.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Whiteway
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include

Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Whiteway?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
See our prices page.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
