Non-slip bath coating near Morgantown

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Morgantown

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

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.

Morgantown questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Merthyr Tydfil. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you come to Morgantown?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Morgantown and the rest of Merthyr Tydfil. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from photos 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Morgantown

For anyone letting property in or around Morgantown, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairing versus replacing in Morgantown

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
