Non-slip bath coating near Healey

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Non-slip bath coating in Healey, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not 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.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

10 questions to ask before you book

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

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.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Healey get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Healey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Landlords, agents and businesses in Healey

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Healey

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
