Non-slip bath coating near Newsham

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Newsham

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Newsham

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 normally the cheaper route.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NE24 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace in Newsham?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Newsham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

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.
