Whittlesey questions
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Whittlesey and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Landlord and trade work in Whittlesey
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whittlesey as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Whittlesey, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Repairing versus replacing in Whittlesey
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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 before booking.
