Non-slip bath coating in Sheffield

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

About our non-slip bath coating in Sheffield

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

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.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Sheffield

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Common problems we fix in Sheffield

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

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Sheffield

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sheffield

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 work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Repairing versus replacing in Sheffield

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs 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.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before booking

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
