Repairing versus replacing in Burnaston

The alternatives are 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. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Non-slip bath coating in Burnaston without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Burnaston

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Burnaston. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Work for landlords and builders

Can I add another job to the visit?
