Questions from Sheepwash
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Sheepwash
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, across wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What else we do in Sheepwash
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Sheepwash?

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What affects the price in Sheepwash
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repairing versus replacing in Sheepwash
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and 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.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
