Non-slip bath coating for Kentmere homes

What affects the price in Kentmere

We charge the same across the UK, including Kentmere. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Non-slip bath coating in Kentmere without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kentmere

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Everything repaired in place

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Advice

Kentmere questions

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

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your LA8 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.
