Non-slip bath coating near Cradley

About our non-slip bath coating in Cradley

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. 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 enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Cradley questions

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Repair or replace in Cradley?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Read our prices page.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dudley and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cradley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
