Trusted non-slip bath coating in Radfield

About our non-slip bath coating in Radfield

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Radfield

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.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

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

What affects the price in Radfield

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  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, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Radfield questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Radfield

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Radfield use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
