Non-slip bath coating near Eggleston

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

About our non-slip bath coating in Eggleston

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Eggleston

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Eggleston is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you work in Eggleston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Eggleston and the rest of County Durham. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

When to call us in Eggleston

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Eggleston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Eggleston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DL12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
