Non-slip bath coating in Beer

Non-slip bath coating in Beer without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Beer?

The alternatives are 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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Beer

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Beer

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  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. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Beer, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common questions in Beer

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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