How we handle non-slip bath coating in Walterstone Common

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common problems we fix in Walterstone Common

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no area surcharge for Walterstone Common. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Walterstone Common

Will it make a mess?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I clean it?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Do you work in Walterstone Common?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Walterstone Common. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do you cover the whole of Herefordshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Walterstone Common and the rest of Herefordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Walterstone Common. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
