Trusted non-slip bath coating in Rickford

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Rickford

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. We work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Rickford

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add 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.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Rickford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Common questions in Rickford

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Rickford included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How do I book?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.
