Non-slip bath coating at your home in Earl Shilton

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. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Earl Shilton

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Earl Shilton, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

FAQs for Earl Shilton

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Leicestershire.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you charge for travel?

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 Earl Shilton?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE9 postcode.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair is not the answer

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

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

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Earl Shilton

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 these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
