Non-slip bath coating for Talacre homes

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Non-slip bath coating in Talacre, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Talacre

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Talacre. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Repair or replace in Talacre?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we’re called out for in Talacre

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
