Non-slip bath coating in West Bradford

Non-slip bath coating at your home in West Bradford

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

West Bradford questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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.
