About our non-slip bath coating in High Throston

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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 usually cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around High Throston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in High Throston?

Common reasons people in High Throston contact us are:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

We won’t take on work 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

  • Shower trays
  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths

  • Wet room floors (ask us)

What affects the price in High Throston

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for High Throston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in High Throston

Instead, you could go for 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 don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Read our pricing.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

There is 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
