About our non-slip bath coating in Troutbeck

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Troutbeck as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Troutbeck, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

What a repair can’t fix

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Troutbeck questions

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

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

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LA23 postcode.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Repair or replace in Troutbeck?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
