Non-slip bath coating for Cross Green homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Cross Green

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, across enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cross Green as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Cross Green

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Cross Green?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Cross Green

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How soon can you come?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

We cover the entire UK, including Cross Green and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
