Non-slip bath coating in Colchester Green without replacing anything

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. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Colchester Green

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you come to Colchester Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Colchester Green and the rest of Suffolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Colchester Green

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What affects the price in Colchester Green

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Colchester Green

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

If you manage property in Colchester Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Colchester Green

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

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