  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating in Hardwicke, done in place

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

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hardwicke and across Gloucestershire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Hardwicke

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip 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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

There’s 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 price.

What a repair can’t fix

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Hardwicke

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 adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our prices page.
