Non-slip bath coating for Clapton homes

Clapton: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Do you cover the entire of West Berkshire?

The whole UK, including all of West Berkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

About our non-slip bath coating in Clapton

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Clapton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clapton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Clapton?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We don’t charge extra for travel to Clapton. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RG17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
