Non-slip bath coating in Dunton

Non-slip bath coating in Dunton, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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. We regularly repair enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we would advise against a repair

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Dunton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Dunton

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Dunton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Dunton

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
