About our non-slip bath coating in Ballinger Common

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Ballinger Common

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ballinger Common.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

When a repair is not the answer

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Ballinger Common

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Ballinger Common

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Ballinger Common

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ballinger Common. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
