Non-slip bath coating near Bexleyheath

About our non-slip bath coating in Bexleyheath

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right, on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bexleyheath and across Greater London. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Questions from Bexleyheath

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we work on in Bexleyheath

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace in Bexleyheath?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them

There’s no area surcharge for Bexleyheath. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bexleyheath, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
