Non-slip bath coating in West Milton

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in West Milton

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: 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.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in West Milton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in West Milton

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
