What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Alport

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. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Alport

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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One visit for most repairs

Common questions in Alport

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you come to Alport?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Alport from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.
