Need non-slip bath coating in Widney Manor?

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Non-slip bath coating in Widney Manor without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Widney Manor

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Widney Manor

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your B91 postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

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 adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
