Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Firth Park

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Non-slip bath coating in Firth Park without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. 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. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
