Trusted non-slip bath coating in Ermine East

Non-slip bath coating in Ermine East without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ermine East

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Ermine East questions

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

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.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
