Common questions in Yr Hôb

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in Yr Hôb?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Yr Hôb. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Yr Hôb

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no area surcharge for Yr Hôb. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Yr Hôb

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What we’re called out for in Yr Hôb

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
