Non-slip bath coating in Stow Hill

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Advice

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Stow Hill

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Stow Hill questions

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Stow Hill?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Stow Hill included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you quote from photos?

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

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Stow Hill?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

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

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Stow Hill

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Stow Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no charge for travel to Stow Hill. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, 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 before you book.

Materials we work on in Stow Hill

  • Enamelled baths

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
