About our non-slip bath coating in Great Barford

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

How we price non-slip bath coating

We charge the same across the UK, including Great Barford. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Great Barford

Great Barford questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Are you accredited?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

What happens next?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Great Barford. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
