How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Non-slip bath coating in Bulstrode, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Bulstrode

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover the whole of Hertfordshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Bulstrode and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Repair or replace in Bulstrode?

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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bulstrode. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, 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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
