Non-slip bath coating in Burgh Castle

Non-slip bath coating in Burgh Castle without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Burgh Castle and across Norfolk. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Advice

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Burgh Castle. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Burgh Castle and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Burgh Castle. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlord and trade work in Burgh Castle

For anyone letting property in or around Burgh Castle, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we are called out for in Burgh Castle

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.
