Non-slip bath coating in Humberstone

Non-slip bath coating in Humberstone, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Humberstone

Landlords, agents and businesses in Humberstone

If you manage property in Humberstone, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Humberstone

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Humberstone

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Humberstone is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Humberstone

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
