Non-slip bath coating in Peppard Hill

Non-slip bath coating in Peppard Hill without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Peppard Hill

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Peppard Hill

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Comparing quotes

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Peppard Hill: your questions answered

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Peppard Hill?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RG9 postcode.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you work in Peppard Hill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Peppard Hill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
