Non-slip bath coating in Cricklewood, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cricklewood as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

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. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Cricklewood. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Cricklewood

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Cricklewood

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you come to Cricklewood?

We do. We send a technician to Cricklewood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Are there extra charges for Cricklewood?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Cricklewood

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
