Non-slip bath coating in Ashby Magna

When to call us in Ashby Magna

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ashby Magna

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most frequently 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 isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Ashby Magna

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
