Non-slip bath coating in Foldrings without replacing anything

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

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Foldrings and across Sheffield. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlords, agents and businesses in Foldrings

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Foldrings, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Foldrings

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Sheffield. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Foldrings?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Repairing versus replacing in Foldrings

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we price non-slip bath coating

We don’t charge extra for travel to Foldrings. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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