How we handle non-slip bath coating in Humby

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Humby as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  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. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Humby

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Humby: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Humby?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do I have to be there?

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no area surcharge for Humby. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Humby, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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