The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain 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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

FAQs for Burlton

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you cover the whole of Shropshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Burlton and the rest of Shropshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you cover Burlton?

We do. We send a technician to Burlton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we cannot put right

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Burlton

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

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Burlton. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
