Trusted non-slip bath coating in Stibbington

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Stibbington

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not 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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stibbington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Stibbington

Smooth surfaces are 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.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Stibbington: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

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

Is there a guarantee?

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

What information do you need?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?

All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Are there extra charges for Stibbington?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
