Non-slip bath coating in Icklingham

About our non-slip bath coating in Icklingham

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back

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 will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
