When to call us in Low Hesket

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • 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

About our non-slip bath coating in Low Hesket

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace in Low Hesket?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Low Hesket. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

FAQs for Low Hesket

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

We price from pictures 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.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 you book.

Surfaces we repair

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