Non-slip bath coating near Bedford

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bedford

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. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bedford

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

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no area surcharge for Bedford. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting 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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Bedford

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.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
