Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bailrigg

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we’re called out for in Bailrigg

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Repair or replace in Bailrigg?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

What affects the price in Bailrigg

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.
