Non-slip bath coating in Castle Camps

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Castle Camps

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our prices page.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

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

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Castle Camps

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What non-slip bath coating costs

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Common questions in Castle Camps

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
