Non-slip bath coating in Trealaw without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can typically put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trealaw

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common questions in Trealaw

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What affects the price in Trealaw

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

If you’re in Trealaw and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Advice

When to call us in Trealaw

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace in Trealaw?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
