Non-slip bath coating near Newchurch

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Newchurch

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Newchurch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

FAQs for Newchurch

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price
