Non-slip bath coating near Newsbank

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Newsbank

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. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

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

What affects the price in Newsbank

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

  • Worn-out textured areas

Common questions in Newsbank

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Newsbank

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newsbank. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
