Non-slip bath coating near Sower Carr

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Non-slip bath coating in Sower Carr, done in place

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. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sower Carr. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

If you are in Sower Carr and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlord and trade work in Sower Carr

If you manage property in Sower Carr, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sower Carr use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Sower Carr questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are there extra charges for Sower Carr?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it messy?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

Everywhere in the UK, Sower Carr included. Travel is included in the price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common problems we fix in Sower Carr

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Repairing versus replacing in Sower Carr

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
