Non-slip bath coating at your home in Sheepdrove

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t 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 we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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.

Materials we repair

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Sheepdrove. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your RG17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Sheepdrove

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Sheepdrove: your questions answered

When can you do it?

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

What information do you need?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
