Non-slip bath coating near Sawdon

Non-slip bath coating in Sawdon without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Sawdon

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Common questions in Sawdon

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your YO13 postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Sawdon clients choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Sawdon

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
