Trusted non-slip bath coating in Thorns Green

Landlord and trade work in Thorns Green

For anyone letting property in or around Thorns Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Non-slip bath coating in Thorns Green without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Trafford. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Thorns Green

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Thorns Green

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

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

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Thorns Green. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
