Non-slip bath coating near Redtye

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Redtye

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are frequently asked to fix worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Redtye questions

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Redtye.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Are there extra charges for Redtye?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What we’re called out for in Redtye

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Before booking anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Redtye customers choose us
