Non-slip bath coating near Denton

Non-slip bath coating in Denton, done in place

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. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

On the day, 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 are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

Repair or replace in Denton?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Denton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

When a repair is not the answer
