About our non-slip bath coating in Four Throws

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Four Throws as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

What affects the price in Four Throws

We do not charge extra for travel to Four Throws. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Four Throws

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Four Throws as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Four Throws

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Four Throws?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
