Benchill: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you come to Benchill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Benchill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
About our non-slip bath coating in Benchill
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
