Trusted non-slip bath coating in Rockhampton

Non-slip bath coating in Rockhampton, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, across enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Rockhampton?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rockhampton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

If you manage property in Rockhampton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Rockhampton

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we are called out for in Rockhampton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Rockhampton: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

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

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

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
