Why repair rather than replace?

Non-slip bath coating in Windy Arbour without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Windy Arbour
Do you cover the entire of Wigan?
Across the UK, so Windy Arbour is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you work in Windy Arbour?
We do. We send a technician to Windy Arbour for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Windy Arbour, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, 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 photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
