Trusted non-slip bath coating in Corton

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Corton

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Corton

Do you come to Corton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Corton and the rest of Suffolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there any odour?

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

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR32 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
