Book non-slip bath coating in Thorpe Salvin

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Non-slip bath coating in Thorpe Salvin, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can typically put it right.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Thorpe Salvin

For anyone letting property in or around Thorpe Salvin, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for 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. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

How to compare quotes

What non-slip bath coating costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Thorpe Salvin. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Common questions in Thorpe Salvin

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do I need to be at home?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Thorpe Salvin included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
