Non-slip bath coating in Clough Head without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Clough Head

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What affects the price in Clough Head

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Clough Head

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Clough Head: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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