Non-slip bath coating in Colley Gate

Landlord and trade work in Colley Gate

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colley Gate as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Colley Gate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Colley Gate

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • The material

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

Advice

Colley Gate questions

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Dudley. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do I need to be at home?

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

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Colley Gate?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
