Trusted non-slip bath coating in Stanshope

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Non-slip bath coating in Stanshope, done in place

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. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Stanshope

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you do not 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.

FAQs for Stanshope

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
