Non-slip bath coating in Stody

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.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Stody

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stody as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stody as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

For a price in Stody, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Safety for older or less mobile people

How to compare quotes

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Most clients in Stody get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

FAQs for Stody

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
