Non-slip bath coating at your home in Berwick Hills

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we cannot put right

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

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Berwick Hills clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Berwick Hills?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Berwick Hills

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Berwick Hills use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Berwick Hills: your questions answered

Do you cover the entire of Middlesbrough?

All of Middlesbrough, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
