Non-slip bath coating near Healey

Non-slip bath coating in Healey without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and people most frequently call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Healey

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How do I clean it?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Healey. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
