About our non-slip bath coating in Helme

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

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

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Helme

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Helme

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Common questions in Helme

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

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Helme. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Landlord and trade work in Helme

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

What affects the price in Helme

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Helme. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

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