Non-slip bath coating for East Bergholt homes

About our non-slip bath coating in East Bergholt

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in East Bergholt

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace in East Bergholt?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What non-slip bath coating costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in East Bergholt

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
