Non-slip bath coating in Garforth without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip 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 will give you the exact figure.

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Garforth and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Common problems we fix in Garforth

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LS25 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 you book.

Surfaces we repair

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