Non-slip bath coating near Wolstanton

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wolstanton

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. 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.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Wolstanton

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work in Wolstanton?

We do. We send a technician to Wolstanton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
