Non-slip bath coating near Grizebeck

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Grizebeck

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Grizebeck?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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 will get a fixed figure.

Grizebeck questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I clean it?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

10 questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Grizebeck. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Grizebeck. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Grizebeck, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
