Trusted non-slip bath coating in Ellesborough

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ellesborough

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Ellesborough

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Will I see the coating?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ellesborough

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

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Related advice

Common problems we fix in Ellesborough

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

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are 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 depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
