How we handle non-slip bath coating in Rushford

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are 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 start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 usually the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
