Choosing a repair company

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ruyton-XI-Towns

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Questions from Ruyton-XI-Towns

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

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

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, 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 put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ruyton-XI-Towns as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace in Ruyton-XI-Towns?

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ruyton-XI-Towns. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
