About our non-slip bath coating in Gallows Green

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with 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, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is 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.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Everything repaired in place

Take a look at our pricing.

What affects the price in Gallows Green

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gallows Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Gallows Green

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

Common problems we fix in Gallows Green

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Common reasons people in Gallows Green contact us are:

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

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Questions from Gallows Green

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Do you cover Gallows Green?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Gallows Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Landlord and trade work in Gallows Green

If you manage property in Gallows Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
