What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

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

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, across shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lower Hook and across Worcestershire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Lower Hook

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Lower Hook, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repairing versus replacing in Lower Hook

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
