Non-slip bath coating for Ingatestone homes

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

About our non-slip bath coating in Ingatestone

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths alike.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Ingatestone

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Ingatestone is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When to call us in Ingatestone

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Before booking anyone

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Ingatestone

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. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ingatestone. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not 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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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