Non-slip bath coating in Newbold, 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. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Newbold and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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

Landlord and trade work in Newbold

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

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

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

What we’re called out for in Newbold

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

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

How we price non-slip bath coating

We charge the same across the UK, including Newbold. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Newbold

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Newbold?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can landlords book you?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How do I clean it?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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.
