Non-slip bath coating in Ardleigh Heath

Ardleigh Heath: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ardleigh Heath

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically 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
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

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 will get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Ardleigh Heath

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ardleigh Heath

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a 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, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
