Non-slip bath coating in Finkley

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Non-slip bath coating in Finkley, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
