Non-slip bath coating for Donnington homes

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Donnington

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Donnington?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

What affects the price in Donnington

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PO20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Donnington

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Donnington questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there any odour?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Donnington

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Donnington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes 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. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
