  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.

Non-slip bath coating in Shevington Moor, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When to call us in Shevington Moor

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Shevington Moor questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Shevington Moor included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Shevington Moor, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shevington Moor as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Repair or replace in Shevington Moor?

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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