Non-slip bath coating near Gorse Hill

Non-slip bath coating in Gorse Hill, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Gorse Hill?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Gorse Hill

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Gorse Hill?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
