About our non-slip bath coating in Wolverton

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We are frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Wolverton

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CT15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 Wolverton

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

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured 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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
