  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

  • Wet room floors (ask us)

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Abbey Village

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Abbey Village

There’s no area surcharge for Abbey Village. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

  • Worn-out textured areas

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Abbey Village

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Abbey Village. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Landlord and trade work in Abbey Village

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
