Non-slip bath coating at your home in Linton

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

We guarantee the work for a year. 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. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Linton: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you come to Linton?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Linton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Linton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Linton

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
