How we handle non-slip bath coating in Spencers Wood

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)

  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

FAQs for Spencers Wood

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you work in Spencers Wood?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Spencers Wood. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When to call us in Spencers Wood

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • 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 booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Spencers Wood

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
