Non-slip bath coating for The Bodnetts homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in The Bodnetts

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The Bodnetts: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover the entire of Staffordshire?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in The Bodnetts?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your B78 postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in The Bodnetts

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Repair or replace in The Bodnetts?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
