Trusted non-slip bath coating in Thurcroft

About our non-slip bath coating in Thurcroft

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

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.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Thurcroft

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Common reasons people in Thurcroft contact us are:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thurcroft

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Thurcroft

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Rotherham.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

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.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Thurcroft, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
