Landlord and trade work in Aston
For anyone letting property in or around Aston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Non-slip bath coating in Aston, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Aston
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Aston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Aston questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you work in Aston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Aston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace in Aston?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Aston?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
