Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wickenby

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Wickenby and across Lincolnshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Wickenby

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace in Wickenby?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Wickenby

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Are there extra charges for Wickenby?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price
