What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Great Melton

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Great Melton questions

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you cover Great Melton?

We do. We send a technician to Great Melton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Which areas do you work in?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

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 work on in Great Melton

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

What we are called out for in Great Melton

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

Common reasons people in Great Melton contact us are:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
