Non-slip bath coating near Newton

Non-slip bath coating in Newton, done in place

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. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Newton: your questions answered

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What affects the price in Newton

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
