Need non-slip bath coating in Hartwell?

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Non-slip bath coating in Hartwell without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Hartwell

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Hartwell

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Hartwell?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hartwell

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
