Non-slip bath coating in New Mills

Why repair rather than replace?

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 adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Non-slip bath coating in New Mills without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in New Mills as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

  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. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for New Mills

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Are you accredited?

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

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in New Mills?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What affects the price in New Mills

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

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SK22 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When to call us in New Mills

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • 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

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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