When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays
  • Resurfaced baths

Non-slip bath coating in Longhill, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Longhill

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Longhill customers choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One price list for the entire UK

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Longhill

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

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Longhill

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do you charge for travel?

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

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you cover the whole of Hull?

Everywhere in the UK, Longhill included. Travel is included in the price.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
