Non-slip bath coating in Arkholme

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Arkholme

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. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Arkholme

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Questions from Arkholme

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Arkholme?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Arkholme from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

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.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

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

What we are called out for in Arkholme

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When we would 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Arkholme

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Arkholme, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LA6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
