Trusted non-slip bath coating in Crossways

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Crossways

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS35 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, 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. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Most clients in Crossways get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Crossways?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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.

When to call us in Crossways

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people get in touch after spotting one 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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Crossways: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

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

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Crossways?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Honest limits

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 photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
