About our non-slip bath coating in Coton in the Elms

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Coton in the Elms

Do you cover Coton in the Elms?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Coton in the Elms. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How soon can you come?

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

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What non-slip bath coating costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Coton in the Elms, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
