Non-slip bath coating in Sparkford

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Non-slip bath coating in Sparkford without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for 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 will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sparkford

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

FAQs for Sparkford

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Sparkford?

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