About our non-slip bath coating in Brimley

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Brimley

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Brimley

Do you work in Brimley?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Brimley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

We charge the same across the UK, including Brimley. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Brimley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
