Trusted non-slip bath coating in Whittington

Non-slip bath coating in Whittington without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Whittington?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Whittington

  • Wet room floors (ask us)

How we price non-slip bath coating

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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 you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for 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. 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.

FAQs for Whittington

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you come to Whittington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Whittington and the rest of Staffordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
