Non-slip bath coating for Northumberland Park homes

Can I fix it myself?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Non-slip bath coating in Northumberland Park, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are frequently asked to fix worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Northumberland Park?

The alternatives are 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. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Take a look at our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Northumberland Park, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

When to call us in Northumberland Park

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • 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

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Northumberland Park

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

If you manage property in Northumberland Park, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
