Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Stairfoot, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Non-slip bath coating in Stairfoot without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths alike.

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. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Stairfoot

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.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Stairfoot

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why Stairfoot clients choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Stairfoot: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
