How we handle non-slip bath coating in Shop Corner

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Shop Corner

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is my repair covered?

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

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Should you replace it?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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 usually the cheaper route.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shop Corner

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Shop Corner, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we are called out for in Shop Corner

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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