Non-slip bath coating for Albury homes

Non-slip bath coating in Albury without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

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

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OX9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Albury

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Are there extra charges for Albury?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens next?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Albury

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
