Non-slip bath coating in Costessey, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Costessey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Costessey, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Questions from Costessey

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How soon can you come?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How do I clean it?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Costessey.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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.

  • Resurfaced baths

Repair or replace in Costessey?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
