Need non-slip bath coating in Coxhoe?

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Coxhoe

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Coxhoe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Coxhoe: your questions answered

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you cover the entire of County Durham?

We work UK-wide, so Coxhoe is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Will there be a smell?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

When we would advise against a repair

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

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

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. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
