About our non-slip bath coating in Wellhouse

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it 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 apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Wellhouse: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover the whole of West Berkshire?

The whole UK, including all of West Berkshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

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, so there is no premium for Wellhouse. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Wellhouse customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Everything repaired in place

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

When to call us in Wellhouse

Smooth surfaces are 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.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wellhouse

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wellhouse as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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