Non-slip bath coating in Rake

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Calderdale and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Rake

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

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 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.

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Common questions in Rake

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Rake. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
