About our non-slip bath coating in Wincanton

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Wincanton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wincanton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common problems we fix in Wincanton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Wincanton

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wincanton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Wincanton

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the whole UK

FAQs for Wincanton

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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