Non-slip bath coating in Preston-under-Scar

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Preston-under-Scar

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Preston-under-Scar use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Preston-under-Scar

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Preston-under-Scar

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
