Non-slip bath coating in Dovecot without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Dovecot

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dovecot as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Dovecot

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Clients typically contact us about:

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

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Dovecot?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Dovecot. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business

Read our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Questions from Dovecot

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What information do you need?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
