Trusted non-slip bath coating in Crockey Hill

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Non-slip bath coating in Crockey Hill without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When to call us in Crockey Hill

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Crockey Hill. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

Landlord and trade work in Crockey Hill

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, 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 Crockey Hill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Honest limits

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Crockey Hill questions

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your YO19 postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Crockey Hill

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Crockey Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
