Non-slip bath coating for Whenby homes

Non-slip bath coating in Whenby, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Whenby

Is there any odour?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Whenby and the rest of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

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

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes 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. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Whenby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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.

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