About our non-slip bath coating in The Rigg

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in The Rigg as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in The Rigg

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

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your KA18 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for The Rigg. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

What affects the price in The Rigg

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in The Rigg

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

Common problems we fix in The Rigg

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

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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