Non-slip bath coating at your home in Knossington

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Knossington?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Knossington as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Knossington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

FAQs for Knossington

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

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

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you cover Knossington?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Knossington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Repair or replace in Knossington?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
