Non-slip bath coating at your home in Borley

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Most customers in Borley get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Borley

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, 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 Borley

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

Common reasons people in Borley contact us include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to care for the finish
  • When it can be used again
