Non-slip bath coating near Moolham

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Moolham

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

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What we’re called out for in Moolham

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Moolham

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moolham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Moolham

Do you work in Moolham?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Moolham. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
