Non-slip bath coating in Little Mountain

Non-slip bath coating in Little Mountain without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Little Mountain

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

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover Little Mountain?

We do. We send a technician to Little Mountain for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

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

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Little Mountain

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

Repairing versus replacing in Little Mountain

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Mountain

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
