Repairing versus replacing in Mapperley

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Non-slip bath coating in Mapperley without replacing anything

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. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions from Mapperley

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Mapperley.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Mapperley and the rest of Nottingham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Mapperley. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Mapperley get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlord and trade work in Mapperley

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What a repair cannot fix

We will 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
