Non-slip bath coating in Sandiway

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Sandiway

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace in Sandiway?

The alternatives are 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. We don’t add extras on the day.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Sandiway

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Sandiway?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Sandiway?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Sandiway for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Landlord and trade work in Sandiway

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cheshire West and Chester and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Sandiway

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.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What non-slip bath coating costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Sandiway. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
