Trusted non-slip bath coating in Huntley

Non-slip bath coating in Huntley, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What we’re called out for in Huntley

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Huntley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Huntley

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A wider photo showing 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

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Huntley: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What a repair can’t fix

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
