Non-slip bath coating for Parkfield homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Parkfield

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

  • Worn-out textured areas

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

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Parkfield. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Parkfield questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you work in Parkfield?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Parkfield from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
