Ovenden questions

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

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

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

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

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

About our non-slip bath coating in Ovenden

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).

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

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Ovenden

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no area surcharge for Ovenden. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ovenden

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Ovenden customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our pricing.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself 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 clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your HX3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
