Non-slip bath coating in Cottingham

About our non-slip bath coating in Cottingham

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cottingham and across Northamptonshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no charge for travel to Cottingham. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Cottingham

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the whole UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
