Need non-slip bath coating in Deepdale?

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Deepdale as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Non-slip bath coating in Deepdale without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

When to call us in Deepdale

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Deepdale

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Deepdale is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
