Non-slip bath coating in Sandy Lane

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Sandy Lane

Do you cover Sandy Lane?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Sandy Lane. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will I see the coating?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Sandy Lane

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. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths

When to call us in Sandy Lane

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
