Non-slip bath coating in Carlby

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

About our non-slip bath coating in Carlby

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic 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. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Carlby

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

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 coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Carlby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Carlby

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you come to Carlby?

We do. We send a technician to Carlby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
