Questions from Embleton

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Non-slip bath coating in Embleton without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Embleton?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

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

  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. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Embleton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Embleton

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Embleton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
