Non-slip bath coating in Bentham without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, across resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Bentham

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What we are called out for in Bentham

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

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Bentham

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Bentham?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Bentham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t 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.
