Non-slip bath coating for Marton homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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

Non-slip bath coating in Marton without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When a repair isn’t 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

Marton questions

Will I see the coating?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work in Marton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Marton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for 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. A few things move the price: 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.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Marton?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What preparation is included
