Non-slip bath coating in Kirkgunzeon

Repair or replace in Kirkgunzeon?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Non-slip bath coating in Kirkgunzeon without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can normally put it right, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Kirkgunzeon: your questions answered

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Kirkgunzeon included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Kirkgunzeon?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DG2 postcode.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Kirkgunzeon?

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

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kirkgunzeon use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
