Non-slip bath coating for Cheswardine homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Cheswardine

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can normally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Cheswardine?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Cheswardine?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Cheswardine: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will there be a smell?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Cheswardine, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Cheswardine, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
