Non-slip bath coating in Low Team

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Low Team

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Low Team

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no charge for travel to Low Team. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Low Team

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover the entire of Newcastle upon Tyne?

We work UK-wide, so Low Team is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Low Team

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
