Non-slip bath coating for Sandon homes

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Sandon

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

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandon

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from Sandon

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you come to Sandon?

We do. Technicians travel to Sandon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Are there extra charges for Sandon?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Sandon?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price non-slip bath coating

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

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Most customers in Sandon get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
