Non-slip bath coating near Foulden

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Foulden

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Foulden

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Foulden

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and 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. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before booking

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
