Non-slip bath coating for Worton homes

Non-slip bath coating in Worton without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Worton?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Questions from Worton

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Worton.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Worton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When to call us in Worton

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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Worton

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Worton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
