Non-slip bath coating across Hull: what to expect

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we’re called out for in Hull

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

How we price non-slip bath coating

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Questions from Hull

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
