Non-slip bath coating in Highworth

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

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

About our non-slip bath coating in Highworth

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Swindon. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, 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. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Highworth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Highworth?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • 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

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace in Highworth?

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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Highworth questions

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do you work in Highworth?

We do. Technicians travel to Highworth from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SN6 postcode.
