Non-slip bath coating in Barton Bendish

About our non-slip bath coating in Barton Bendish

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common reasons people in Barton Bendish contact us are:

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

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Barton Bendish: your questions answered

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you cover Barton Bendish?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Barton Bendish and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Barton Bendish and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

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

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
