Need non-slip bath coating in Scampston?

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

About our non-slip bath coating in Scampston

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Scampston questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, 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.

Do you come to Scampston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Scampston. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Scampston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

For a price in Scampston, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Scampston

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
