How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Non-slip bath coating in Thorney Moor without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common problems we fix in Thorney Moor

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.

Look out for these signs:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

What affects the price in Thorney Moor

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

FAQs for Thorney Moor

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Thorney Moor?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thorney Moor. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before booking
