How we handle non-slip bath coating in Eel Pie Island

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 before you book.

  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths

What affects the price in Eel Pie Island

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Eel Pie Island

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Eel Pie Island

What do you need from me?

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Why repair rather than replace?

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