Non-slip bath coating near Crackenthorpe

Non-slip bath coating in Crackenthorpe, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no charge for travel to Crackenthorpe. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

For a price in Crackenthorpe, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Crackenthorpe

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
