Non-slip bath coating in Barrowby, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Barrowby. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Barrowby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

Most customers in Barrowby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Barrowby: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Will it make a mess?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Barrowby

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

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
