Non-slip bath coating for Great Doddington homes

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Great Doddington

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Great Doddington

  • Enamelled baths

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays

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 pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Doddington

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
