Trusted non-slip bath coating in Scothern

Non-slip bath coating in Scothern, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Scothern

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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Scothern

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Questions from Scothern

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

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

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Scothern, 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.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
