Non-slip bath coating near Worton

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Worton

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Worton

Do you come to Worton?

We do. We send a technician to Worton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Will I see the coating?

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

Are there extra charges for Worton?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What we are called out for in Worton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Worton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Worton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

If you are in Worton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
