Non-slip bath coating in Knowle Green

Non-slip bath coating in Knowle Green, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Knowle Green and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we are called out for in Knowle Green

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

What non-slip bath coating costs

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Knowle Green, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

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 adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

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 typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Knowle Green use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Questions from Knowle Green

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.
