Trusted non-slip bath coating in Mud Row

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Mud Row

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. 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 enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Mud Row customers choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

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

When to call us in Mud Row

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Mud Row

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For anyone letting property in or around Mud Row, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
