Non-slip bath coating in Stowehill

Non-slip bath coating in Stowehill without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Stowehill questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Stowehill and the rest of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northamptonshire.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not 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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Stowehill

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stowehill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
