Non-slip bath coating for Wherwell homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Wherwell

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, in shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Wherwell

Do you cover Wherwell?

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SP11 postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

When to call us in Wherwell

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.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Wherwell. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SP11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
