Non-slip bath coating for Pipe and Lyde homes

Non-slip bath coating in Pipe and Lyde without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Pipe and Lyde

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Pipe and Lyde, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
