Non-slip bath coating near Ashurst

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ashurst

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Ashurst

If you manage property in Ashurst, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ashurst as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

When to call us in Ashurst

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Ashurst. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ashurst. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Ashurst: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Repair or replace in Ashurst?

Instead, you could go for 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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
