When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet room floors (ask us)

  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays

Non-slip bath coating in Headon, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Headon as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Headon

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Headon?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you come to Headon?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Headon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise 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.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Headon, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we’re called out for in Headon

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.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to care for the finish

Landlord and trade work in Headon

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

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

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Headon?

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Headon clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
