Non-slip bath coating at your home in Hazelwell

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Hazelwell questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How soon can you come?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do you come to Hazelwell?

We do. We send a technician to Hazelwell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Hazelwell and the rest of Birmingham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your B14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

What we cannot put right

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

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Hazelwell

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

When to call us in Hazelwell

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Hazelwell?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and 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. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
