Non-slip bath coating near New Whittington

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.

Non-slip bath coating in New Whittington without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in New Whittington

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

New Whittington questions

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Are there extra charges for New Whittington?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you come to New Whittington?

We do. We send a technician to New Whittington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What affects the price in New Whittington

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your S43 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Do you need non-slip bath coating in New Whittington?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in New Whittington

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
