Non-slip bath coating for Rainton homes

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Non-slip bath coating in Rainton without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Rainton as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What we’re called out for in Rainton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Rainton questions

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
