Non-slip bath coating in Steel Heath without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Steel Heath questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Are you accredited?

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

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SY13 postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Steel Heath?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Steel Heath

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Steel Heath clients choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our full price list.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What non-slip bath coating costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from photos 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’ll come back with a fixed figure.
