Non-slip bath coating in Grimscote

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Grimscote

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

10 questions to ask before booking

What non-slip bath coating costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Grimscote. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Grimscote, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Advice

Questions from Grimscote

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Grimscote?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Grimscote?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
