Non-slip bath coating for Lower Heyford homes

Non-slip bath coating in Lower Heyford, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

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. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Heyford

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Lower Heyford

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.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What to look for in a quote

Our hiring checklist

How we price non-slip bath coating

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I book?

Do you cover Lower Heyford?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Lower Heyford and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. 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 a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
