Non-slip bath coating in Newbury

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of 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.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Non-slip bath coating in Newbury, done in place

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. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wiltshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Common problems we fix in Newbury

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

Newbury: your questions answered

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Newbury?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

We also cover the places around Newbury: Horningsham (1 mile west), Chatter Alley (2 miles north), Temple (2 miles north), Maiden Bradley (2 miles south-west) and Cole Hill (2 miles north-west). We also work in nearby towns such as Trowbridge (10 miles north), Westbury (7 miles north-east), Melksham (15 miles north), Warminster (4 miles north-east), Bradford-on-Avon (12 miles north) and Paxcroft Mead (11 miles north).

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Newbury

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
