Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Burnham Thorpe

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.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating in Burnham Thorpe without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Burnham Thorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Burnham Thorpe clients choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Burnham Thorpe: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

How do I book?

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

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover Burnham Thorpe?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Burnham Thorpe. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnham Thorpe

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burnham Thorpe use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
