Non-slip bath coating in Crooked Billet without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

When to call us in Crooked Billet

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Crooked Billet

If you manage property in Crooked Billet, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

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

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Crooked Billet

Are there extra charges for Crooked Billet?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you come to Crooked Billet?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Crooked Billet and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
