How we handle non-slip bath coating in Low Beechburn

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 regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Low Beechburn

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Low Beechburn

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
