Trusted non-slip bath coating in Wilsill

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wilsill

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. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Wilsill

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace in Wilsill?

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wilsill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Wilsill

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you come to Wilsill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Wilsill and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Common problems we fix in Wilsill

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel

  • What prep work is covered
