Non-slip bath coating in Pelton

Questions from Pelton

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Which areas do you work in?

All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

About our non-slip bath coating in Pelton

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Every job is backed for twelve months in Pelton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Read our full price list.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Pelton

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 usually mention when they call include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again

What affects the price in Pelton

There’s no charge for travel to Pelton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Pelton, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
