Non-slip bath coating in Tadgedale

Non-slip bath coating in Tadgedale, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tadgedale as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Tadgedale

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

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Tadgedale get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Tadgedale, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Tadgedale: your questions answered

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Tadgedale?

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

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Tadgedale?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
