Non-slip bath coating in Packmoor

What affects the price in Packmoor

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Packmoor

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

What we are called out for in Packmoor

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.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Packmoor questions

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Packmoor

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Packmoor, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What we can’t put right

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

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