Non-slip bath coating for Drellingore homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Drellingore

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Drellingore

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Repairing versus replacing in Drellingore

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

How we price non-slip bath coating

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not 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.

Drellingore questions

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Drellingore?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Drellingore. Prices do not change with location.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
