Non-slip bath coating in Bull Hill

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Bull Hill

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

Non-slip bath coating in Bull Hill without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bull Hill and across Blackburn with Darwen. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When to call us in Bull Hill

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.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bull Hill

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bull Hill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no area surcharge for Bull Hill. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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 quote the same day in most cases.
