Need non-slip bath coating in Wheatcroft?

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wheatcroft

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wheatcroft as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We charge the same across the UK, including Wheatcroft. What changes the price is:

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

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair cannot fix

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Wheatcroft

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

When to call us in Wheatcroft

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.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Questions from Wheatcroft

Is my repair covered?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Wheatcroft?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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