Non-slip bath coating for Brockley Whins homes

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Brockley Whins. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Brockley Whins

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Brockley Whins

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you cover the entire of Sunderland?

We cover the entire UK, including Brockley Whins and the rest of Sunderland. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NE34 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Brockley Whins. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brockley Whins

For anyone letting property in or around Brockley Whins, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common problems we fix in Brockley Whins

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day
