Non-slip bath coating near Bacup

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bacup

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your photos

What non-slip bath coating costs

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Bacup

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.

Look out for any of the following:

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

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Bacup

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Across the UK, and that includes Bacup. Prices don’t change with location.

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Bacup

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
