Need non-slip bath coating in Rachub?

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Rachub

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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 work on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Rachub and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths

  • Shower trays

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rachub

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a 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, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Rachub, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
