Non-Slip Bath Coating in Risby

Non-slip bath coating in Risby without replacing anything
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 regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, 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’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Risby
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Risby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Risby
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Get a quote
