Non-slip bath coating in Stanton Street

Non-slip bath coating in Stanton Street without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Stanton Street

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Stanton Street

Are you accredited?

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

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

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.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Stanton Street. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Stanton Street and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Stanton Street

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

Common problems we fix in Stanton Street

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
