Non-slip bath coating for Bents homes

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

About our non-slip bath coating in Bents

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can generally put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
