Non-slip bath coating near Bent Gate

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bent Gate

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bent Gate as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Bent Gate. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Bent Gate

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Bent Gate?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you work in Bent Gate?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bent Gate. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Bent Gate?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
