DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wyken

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Wyken

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wyken. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you’re in Wyken and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Wyken

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Wyken?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Wyken?

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Wyken

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our prices page.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
