Non-slip bath coating in New Farnley, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would 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

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

What we work on

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

New Farnley: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What affects the price in New Farnley

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LS12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in New Farnley?

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

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
