Trusted non-slip bath coating in Adelphi

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Adelphi

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can usually put it right.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Adelphi as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

10 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Adelphi

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Adelphi included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you cover Adelphi?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Adelphi from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

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 will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
