How we price non-slip bath coating

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Non-slip bath coating in Colwood without replacing anything

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. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common problems we fix in Colwood

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Colwood questions

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I clean it?

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

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Does someone need to be in?

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Colwood as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
