Non-slip bath coating for Almholme homes

Non-slip bath coating in Almholme, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, 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 generally cheaper.

What we can’t put right

We will 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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Almholme

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you cover the whole of Doncaster?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Landlord and trade work in Almholme

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Almholme, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Almholme

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
