What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ivychurch

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ivychurch as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Ivychurch?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Landlord and trade work in Ivychurch

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ivychurch as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How we price non-slip bath coating

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Ivychurch

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Ivychurch?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your TN29 postcode.

Do you come to Ivychurch?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
