Non-slip bath coating in Prestwold, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Prestwold

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Prestwold

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Prestwold customers choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Same prices wherever you are

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Prestwold use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Prestwold

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
