How we handle non-slip bath coating in Hardwick

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What affects the price in Hardwick

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Hardwick

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you cover Hardwick?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hardwick and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Hardwick

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
