Non-slip bath coating in The Hangers

Non-slip bath coating in The Hangers without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in The Hangers as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in The Hangers

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in The Hangers

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no area surcharge for The Hangers. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Hangers use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

The Hangers questions

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you come to The Hangers?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to The Hangers for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will the price change on the day?

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