About our non-slip bath coating in Aldwincle

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Aldwincle as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise 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.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Take a look at our full price list.

When to call us in Aldwincle

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Aldwincle

Will I see the coating?

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

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NN14 postcode.

Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Aldwincle and the rest of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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 booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Aldwincle, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
