How we handle non-slip bath coating in Trent

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

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trent as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Trent

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Trent

Are you accredited?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you cover Trent?

We do. Technicians travel to Trent from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Trent?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

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

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

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

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Trent

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
