Non-slip bath coating for Thropton homes

Repairing versus replacing in Thropton

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath 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’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Thropton

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right.

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Questions from Thropton

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Thropton.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Thropton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Common problems we fix in Thropton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Common reasons people in Thropton contact us include:

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

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NE65 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
