When to call us in Outwood

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.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating in Outwood without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Outwood

What happens next?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How do I clean it?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Outwood

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What non-slip bath coating costs

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Outwood, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
