Non-slip bath coating at your home in New Leeds

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in New Leeds

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We 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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why New Leeds customers choose us

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in New Leeds

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured 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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
