Non-slip bath coating for Barnehurst homes

Non-slip bath coating in Barnehurst without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Barnehurst

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Barnehurst

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • 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 pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Barnehurst, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Most clients in Barnehurst get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Barnehurst questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Barnehurst?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do the materials smell?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Barnehurst?

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

Look out for these signs:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
