Non-slip bath coating for Plains Farm homes

Repairing versus replacing in Plains Farm

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 treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Plains Farm customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything

Plains Farm questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you come to Plains Farm?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Plains Farm and the rest of Sunderland. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are there extra charges for Plains Farm?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Plains Farm. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

When to call us in Plains Farm

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for any of the following:

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

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Plains Farm

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plains Farm use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down 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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
