Non-slip bath coating near Crew's Hole

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Crew's Hole

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays

Crew's Hole questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you come to Crew's Hole?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Crew's Hole and the rest of Bristol. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Repair or replace in Crew's Hole?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Crew's Hole

We don’t charge extra for travel to Crew's Hole. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most clients in Crew's Hole get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
