Non-slip bath coating in Caldecote without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Caldecote, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Caldecote?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Common questions in Caldecote

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you come to Caldecote?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Caldecote. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cambridgeshire.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
