Book non-slip bath coating in Ruabon

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Ruabon, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ruabon

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ruabon as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Ruabon?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Advice

FAQs for Ruabon

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I clean it?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Ruabon?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Ruabon.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Ruabon, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Ruabon

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
