Non-slip bath coating for Thornborough homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Thornborough

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Thornborough?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why Thornborough clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Thornborough

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Thornborough?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Thornborough?

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.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price
