Non-slip bath coating for Thornton homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Thornton

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Thornton

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Thornton?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you accredited?

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

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Thornton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Thornton

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Thornton

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

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place

When to call us in Thornton

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.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • 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

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
