Non-slip bath coating near Austerby

Austerby: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

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

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Austerby?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PE10 postcode.

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

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

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it messy?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Austerby

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What we are called out for in Austerby

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Wet room floors (ask us)

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
