Non-slip bath coating near New Inn

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

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. 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), acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in New Inn as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we cannot put right

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in New Inn

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

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to look after the finish
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Questions from New Inn

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you come to New Inn?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to New Inn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it messy?

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

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in New Inn

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

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