Non-slip bath coating in Whisterfield

Non-slip bath coating in Whisterfield, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Whisterfield

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

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Whisterfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Should you replace it?

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. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. 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, including clearing up.

  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. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
