Non-slip bath coating at your home in Hillhouse

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. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

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

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Common problems we fix in Hillhouse

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’re called about are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Hillhouse

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hillhouse

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no area surcharge for Hillhouse. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hillhouse. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
