Non-slip bath coating near Kimbolton

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Kimbolton

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Kimbolton

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Kimbolton

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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

Kimbolton questions

Are there extra charges for Kimbolton?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you come to Kimbolton?

We do. Technicians travel to Kimbolton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
