About our non-slip bath coating in Laverstock

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Laverstock and across Wiltshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

When to call us in Laverstock

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SP1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Laverstock as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace in Laverstock?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Laverstock: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do the materials smell?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

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

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
