Trusted non-slip bath coating in Drayton

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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 typically cheaper.

Non-slip bath coating in Drayton without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Drayton and across Portsmouth. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Drayton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Portsmouth and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Drayton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What we’re called out for in Drayton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Most clients in Drayton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no area surcharge for Drayton. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

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

Send photos for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths

FAQs for Drayton

Is there any odour?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

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 entire of Portsmouth?

All of Portsmouth, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
