Non-slip bath coating in Scammonden, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Scammonden, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs 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 photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we are called out for in Scammonden

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Scammonden: your questions answered

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are 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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
