Non-slip bath coating in Grimston

Non-slip bath coating in Grimston without replacing anything

It’s popular with 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 repair technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Grimston, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from Grimston

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How soon can you come?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Landlord and trade work in Grimston

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Grimston

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether they match the colour on site
