When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Armsdale

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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 a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can usually put it right, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays alike.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Armsdale: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Armsdale get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Armsdale use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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.

Common problems we fix in Armsdale

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for these signs:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
