Non-slip bath coating for Whissendine homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Whissendine

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Whissendine and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common problems we fix in Whissendine

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

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

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • When it can be used again
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Whissendine

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What affects the price in Whissendine

There’s no charge for travel to Whissendine. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you are in Whissendine and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Whissendine

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
