Need non-slip bath coating in Tilstock?

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

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 quote the same day in most cases.

Non-slip bath coating in Tilstock without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Tilstock and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Tilstock

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Repair or replace in Tilstock?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Questions from Tilstock

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.
