About our non-slip bath coating in Rapps

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

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

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

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

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rapps. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Rapps

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

FAQs for Rapps

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Rapps?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TA19 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, 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
