Trusted non-slip bath coating in Thurvaston

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Thurvaston

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

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

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in Thurvaston

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you cover Thurvaston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Thurvaston. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
