How we handle non-slip bath coating in Little Stretton

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Little Stretton and across Shropshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Little Stretton

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Little Stretton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Common reasons people in Little Stretton contact us 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

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Little Stretton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Stretton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Little Stretton questions

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Little Stretton and the rest of Shropshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you come to Little Stretton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Stretton. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Little Stretton?

Instead, you could go for 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different 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.

Materials we work on in Little Stretton

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
