Trusted non-slip bath coating in Miles Cross

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Non-slip bath coating in Miles Cross, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Miles Cross

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Miles Cross. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
