Non-slip bath coating for Unthank homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

About our non-slip bath coating in Unthank

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Unthank. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DD9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Unthank

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you accredited?

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

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Common problems we fix in Unthank

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave 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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

If you’re in Unthank and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the whole UK
