Trusted non-slip bath coating in Chesterton

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chesterton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

About our non-slip bath coating in Chesterton

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Chesterton

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Chesterton?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your OX26 postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Will I see the coating?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Chesterton included. Travel is included in the price.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Chesterton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Chesterton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Chesterton?

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

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

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

DIY kit or professional 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
