Non-slip bath coating for Mill End homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our non-slip bath coating in Mill End

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Mill End. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mill End

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

Common questions in Mill End

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are there extra charges for Mill End?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Mill End. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t 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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
