How we handle non-slip bath coating in Clawton

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Clawton as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in Clawton

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we’re called out for in Clawton

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

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

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

  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Clawton?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Clawton clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Take a look at our full price list.

What affects the price in Clawton

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
