About our non-slip bath coating in Cowick

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Cowick?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Cowick customers choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Cowick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Cowick

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Cowick?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
