Non-slip bath coating at your home in Cross Hill

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cross Hill

If you manage property in Cross Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Cross Hill

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything

See our pricing.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

FAQs for Cross Hill

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Cross Hill included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you cover Cross Hill?

We do. We send a technician to Cross Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Cross Hill?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DE75 postcode.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Cross Hill

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
