Non-slip bath coating near Cross

Non-slip bath coating in Cross, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cross and across Devon. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Cross

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Cross?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover Cross?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cross and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

If you are in Cross and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

When to call us in Cross

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
