Ingbirchworth questions

Do you come to Ingbirchworth?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are there extra charges for Ingbirchworth?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ingbirchworth

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right, on shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common problems we fix in Ingbirchworth

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. 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 put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
