Non-slip bath coating in Piddington

About our non-slip bath coating in Piddington

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. Our technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day

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 any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Landlord and trade work in Piddington

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Piddington as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

FAQs for Piddington

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Piddington. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Piddington?

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in Piddington and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
