Need non-slip bath coating in Frilford?

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Frilford

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Choosing a repair company

How we price non-slip bath coating

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your OX13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Frilford

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Frilford

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
