Non-slip bath & shower coating in Durrington, West Sussex

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Non-slip bath coating in Durrington, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Durrington
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
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.

Repairing versus replacing in Durrington
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What affects the price in Durrington
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

Common problems we fix in Durrington
Smooth surfaces are 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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- 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
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
