Non-slip bath coating near Aller Grove

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Aller Grove

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

Repairing versus replacing in Aller Grove

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are

Common problems we fix in Aller Grove

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

  • The type of damage

Aller Grove questions

Are there extra charges for Aller Grove?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your EX5 postcode.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens next?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Aller Grove

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Aller Grove, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
