Non-slip bath coating in Great Barugh

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Great Barugh

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Great Barugh as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Landlord and trade work in Great Barugh

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Common questions in Great Barugh

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

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 will tell you.

Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Great Barugh included. There is no extra charge for travel.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Great Barugh?

The alternatives are 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Prices and what affects them

There is no charge for travel to Great Barugh. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Great Barugh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
